This Wednesday evening, PSG travels to Monaco in an advanced match of the sixteenth day of Ligue 1. The Parisians could take a ten-point lead at the top of the championship in the event of a victory this evening.
The PSG will play his last match of the year 2024 in Ligue 1 this Wednesday evening with the trip to was Louis II to challenge Monaco as part of the sixteenth day. A shock that was brought forward due to the programming of the Champions Trophywhich will pit the two teams against each other, on January 5, the initial date of this championship meeting. This Wednesday evening, the PSG could strike a big blow by taking ten points ahead of his evening opponent and Marseille in case of victory. For this clash against the third in Ligue 1, Luis Enrique decided to make some changes to his starting lineup.
In order to replace Nuno Mendeshit in the thigh during the victory of the PSG against
Lyon Sunday evening (3-1), the Spanish coach decided to start Warren Zaire-Emery in an unusual left-back role. The titi will accompany
Ashraf Hakimi, Marquinhos et
Willian Pacho in defense. In the midfield,
Fabian Ruiz take advantage of the placement of Warren Zaire-Emery in defense to find a starting place in the middle alongside Vitinha et
João Neves. Author of a very big match against
Lyon, Désiré Doué is once again a starter in attack alongsideOusmane Dembélé et
Bradley Barcola. You will have to follow the offensive animation to know who is playing in which position.
The match summary
And the tone was quickly set in this meeting. From the first minutes, the PSG got himself three big chances but the center-shot ofAshraf Hakimi (3rd) found the post then the attempt to
Bradley Barcola was hijacked by
Philipp Köhn (5th). Found on a cornerOusmane Dembélé, João Neves then saw his head pushed back in front of the line by
Vanderson. For his part, l’ASM responded with a distant strike Eliesse Ben Seghirpushed back by the Parisian goalkeeper (8th). But one of the big facts of this first act occurred a few minutes later. Launched into the surface, Wilfried Singo stumbled upon Gianluigi Donnarumma and wiped his crampons, involuntarily, on the Italian’s lacerated face. Already warned, the defender of l’ASM will not even receive a second yellow card for this attack (17th). After a few minutes of hesitation, a man in good shape achieved Parisian domination. Following a new percussion from Achraf Judge on his right side, the Moroccan found himself behind
Désiré Douéwho with a well-placed shot left no chance to Philipp Köhn (0-1, 24th). The doorman of l’ASM then remained vigilant on the strikes ofAshraf Hakimi (43rd) and
Ousmane Dembélé (45’+4). The PSG returned to the locker room with this short advantage (0-1) but the non-expulsion of Wilfried Singo must have had difficulty getting through to the Rouge & Bleu side.
