PSG quickly took the lead against OL and already made the break this Sunday during the 15th day of Ligue 1 at the Parc des Princes. Follow the match live with commentary with us.
21:05 – OL does not give up
Pierre Sage and his players did not give up at all despite the two goals conceded in the first quarter of an hour. The Lyon coach even asked his players to be higher, with the risks that this entails on the defensive level…
21:02 – Lee dangerous in turn
Lee Kang-in does not go far from the third Parisian goal at the start of the match! Well found on the left, Ousmane Dembélé is a little slow to shift the Korean to the right. The latter loses his control a little before hitting but is hampered by Matic. Perri catches the ball easily.
9.01pm – Lee have you
Lee Kang-in is the first player in this match to be booked after a foul on Nemanja Matic on the left of the field.
20:59 – GOAL for PSG! Vitinha transforms (2-0)!
PSG is already making the break against OL! Vitinha takes responsibility for this penalty and catches Perri on the wrong foot after shooting it very well. 2-0 for Paris after only 14 minutes of play!
20:57 – Penalty for PSG!
Mr. Bastien designates the penalty point in favor of PSG! Corentin Tolisso unbalances Désiré Doué in the area and the referee has absolutely no hesitation.
20:53 – GOAL for PSG! Dembélé breaks the deadlock (1-0)!
PSG takes the advantage from the start of the match! On the left side, Désiré Doué plays Maitland-Niles along the touchline and accelerates. He runs to the goal line in the area before crossing back for Dembélé who deceives Perri with a left shot. 1-0 for PSG after nine minutes of play!
8:50 p.m. – OL emerge
After conceding two corners consecutively, the Lyon players managed to temporarily ward off the danger, but the ball remained in the Parisian feet.
20:49 – Pressure on the OL goal
On a cross from Lee Kang-in, Perri comes out far from his line to box the ball but it comes back to Zaire-Emery who volleys back. A Lyon defender deflects for a corner when things were going well… first corner for Paris.
20:48 – The Parisians have the ball
Without it being a real surprise, the PSG players got their foot on the ball at the start of the match and the Lyonnais are chasing for the moment.
8:45 p.m. – It’s off between PSG and OL
The Lyonnais are engaged in this first period of the match between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Lyonnais! Let's go for this shock of the French championship.
8:40 p.m. – The players leave the locker room
The PSG and OL players are leaving the two locker rooms and are preparing to enter the pitch at the Parc des Princes. The kick-off will be given in a few moments!
20:40 – When John Textor rooms Nasser al-Khelaïfi
OL president John Textor did not make the trip to the Parc des Princes to attend this evening's match between PSG and OL. But while his relations with Nasser al-Khlaïfi are now broken, the American owner of the Lyon club posted a montage of him wearing the Copa Libertadores recently gleaned from Botafogo (another club of which he is the owner), with a message received on WhatsApp by Nasser al-Khelaïfi. The Parisian president then assured him that he “understands nothing about football and that it is a waste of time to speak with (him)”. And above all that he would lose “wherever he went”! Atmosphere, atmosphere…
20:30 – OL-Sage: “With ambition”
Olympique Lyonnais, which remains on four consecutive victories in all competitions, hopes to score a blow in Paris this evening against PSG. Pierre Sage confirmed the ambitions of the Rhone club at a press conference this Saturday. “It's never a good time to play against Paris Saint-Germain, admitted the OL coach. They are at the top of the championship. We will go there with ambition. We will have to be efficient when we have the ball and push them to their limits, but also be effective defensively We will have to be the best version of ourselves.
20:25 – A major shock to the rankings
This meeting between PSG and OL is not just a prestigious meeting between two major French clubs. It is also a decisive match for the L1 ranking and perhaps for the rest of the season. Leader with four points ahead, PSG has the opportunity to widen the gap with Marseille and Monaco, respectively held in check by Lille (1-1) and Reims (0-0) on Saturday. Currently fifth, Lyon could return to six points behind the Parisian club if successful and move ahead of Lille in the standings to fourth place.
8:20 p.m. – OL, one of PSG’s pet peeves
After Rennes (7), OL is the club which has beaten PSG the most in the QSI era, which began in the summer of 2011. The Lyonnais have beaten the Parisians six times in 26 confrontations (for 4 draws and 16 defeats). OL are also the last team to have beaten Paris without conceding a goal in Ligue 1 (1-0, April 2, 2023).
8:15 p.m. – A match broadcast on DAZN
This match between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Lyonnais will not be broadcast unencrypted on television since it will only be visible on DAZN, a channel for which you must subscribe. To follow this meeting between the Parisians and the Lyonnais on the Internet, from 8:45 p.m. this Sunday, December 15, you must go on the Internet, to the DAZN website.
20:10 – PSG: Luis Enrique did not retain Kolo Muani
This is one of the main pieces of information this Sunday from Paris Saint-Germain: Randal Kolo Muani was not selected by coach Luis Enrique to play this match against Olympique Lyonnais. The Blues striker has already had to make do with reduced playing time in recent times (87 minutes of play in PSG's last ten matches), but this time he will have to watch the match from the stands, or from home. This is indeed a choice of the Spanish coach according to RMC, since Kolo Muani is not injured.
20:05 – OL: Lacazette and Fofana substitutes
On the OL side, Pierre Sage did not choose to renew the 4-2-3-1 set up against Stuttgart on Thursday (3-2) for this match at the Parc des Princes during which he expects to suffer a little more. The Lyon coach integrates Veretout in the middle to turn to a 4-3-3 in which Alexandre Lacazette and Malick Fofana do not start. Georges Mikautadze and Ernest Nuamah, in good form, start. OL's starting lineup: Perri – Maitland-Niles, Mata, Niakhaté, Tagliafico – Veretout, Matic, Tolisso – Nuamah, Mikautadze, Cherki.
8:00 p.m. – PSG: Dembélé holder, Barcola and Ramos replacements
For this match against OL, Luis Enrique decided to revive Ousmane Dembélé, while the relationship between the two men has seemed complicated for several weeks. Starting for the first time in almost a month in all competitions, the French winger is associated up front with Lee Kang-in and Désiré Doué, a surprise. Author of a good start in Austria on Tuesday in the Champions League, Doué is rewarded by Luis Enrique. Another surprise, in defense, Marquinhos leaves his place to Beraldo. PSG starting lineup: Donnarumma – Hakimi, Beraldo, Pacho, N. Mendes – Zaire-Emery, Vitinha, J. Neves – O. Dembélé, K. Lee, D. Doué.
19:55 – OL has ambition
OL are a team in good shape. The Rhone club has not lost since hosting Besiktas at the end of October and remains on four consecutive victories in all competitions, with a final convincing success against Frankfurt in the Europa League on Thursday (3-2). Enough to convince the Lyonnais that they are capable of winning at the Parc des Princes this Sunday at the end of the 15th day of Ligue 1. “They are at the top of the championship, but we will go there with ambition”, recognized Pierre Sage at a press conference on Saturday. But despite their good form, OL are not yet the favorites for this meeting against PSG.
19:50 – A real shock between PSG and OL
A match between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Lyonnais is always a shock in Ligue 1, even when one of the two clubs is not at the top of the ranking as was the case for OL in recent seasons . But this season, with the return to the forefront of the Lyonnais, it is a clash between 1st and 5th in L1, which makes it an essential poster for French football. Hoping that the show will be there!
7:45 p.m. – Good evening everyone!
Good evening and welcome to everyone to follow the clash of the 15th day of Ligue 1 between Paris Saint-Germain and Olympique Lyonnais! Kick-off will be given at 8:45 p.m. on the lawn of the Parc des Princes by Mr. Bastien.
