While PSG conceded the draw on Sunday in Nice (1-1), Luis Enrique regretted Dante’s bad gesture on Achraf Hakimi and the referee’s decision not to penalize the Brazilian.
PSG spent a catastrophic first 45 minutes on Sunday on the Allianz Riviera pitch at the end of the 7e day of Ligue 1. If the Parisians had possession, they struggled to show themselves in front of Marcin Bulka’s goal while the Niçois multiplied dangerous situations. The end of the first period was particularly complicated for the French champions. The fault, first of all, was the goal conceded.
On a counter quickly led by Mohamed-Ali Cho, the Nice would first of all set fire to the Parisian defense, which escaped at the last minute thanks to Achraf Hakimi. But on the following corner, Ali Abdi recovered the ball and fired a shot from 20 meters deflected by Nuno Mendes, leaving Gianluigi Donnarumma no chance. Nothing definitely seemed to be going in the right direction for the Parisians.
Achraf Hakimi did not lose heart
A few moments earlier, Dante had in fact committed a big mistake on Achraf Hakimi near the Nice area. If the Parisians had certainly benefited from a free kick, the Brazilian had escaped the yellow card and it was on the contrary the Moroccan and his captain Marquinhos who were going to receive a warning for having protested too vehemently. Enough to enrage the entire Parisian camp.
“I am proud that after a bad first half, my players maintained a positive state of mind. There was an attack on Hakimi which deserved to be analyzed, but it was my players who received two warnings. It would have been easy to complain after that, but my players didn’t do it.”launched Luis Enrique at the end of the meeting while the Moroccan side did not lose heart. “It’s nonsense”he blurted out, getting back up.
