An FC Nantes in crisis traveled to the pitch of Paris Saint-Germain this Saturday evening. The Canaries had to put an end to a black series of four defeats in a row. And it is now done with a draw obtained on the lawn of the reigning French champions. A winning coaching, what's more, from Antoine Kombouaré who decided to leave Alban Lafont on the substitutes' bench to the detriment of Patrik Carlgren, heroic goalkeeper at the Parc des Princes, the great architect of the Jaune- and-Green.
“He has a little star above his head, we had to give it a shot”
For a baptism of fire in Ligue 1, being the goalkeeper of FC Nantes on the pitch of Paris Saint-Germain must have added a little pressure on Patrik Carlgren's shoulders. But as the game progressed, Alban Lafont's usual replacement disgusted the PSG attackers by making nine saves to keep his team afloat. At the end of the game, Antoine Kombouaré returned to this unexpected change: “He's a goalkeeper who looks good, he exudes the joy of living. He's a great kid, a great boy, he has a lot of experience. I didn't give him a gift starting with FC Nantes at the Parc des princes being a barrier and in difficulty, but I had confidence He has a little star above his head, we had to give it a try. What I like is that he is a. boy who exudes a lot of serenity and confidence. It's not a sanction against Alban, but it's true that at the moment, it was complicated for him. This draw is a point of hope.” With this high-level performance, the Swedish goalkeeper could well settle down for good in the Nantes cages.
