Playing With 10 Players, PSG Can Still Beat Le Havre

JAKARTA - Paris Saint-Germain is still too strong for Le Havre. Despite playing with 10 people since the red card of goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma, PSG can still beat the hosts 2-0 at Oceane Stadium, Sunday, December 3 night WIB.

PSG didn't waver when they lost Donnarumma from the start. They still showed their best form to beat Le Havre.

Victory over Le Havre confirmed PSG's position at the top of the standings with 33 points.

A four-point lead with Nice who lost their first of the season. They were beaten 1-0 by Nantes.

Meanwhile, Le Havre remains in ninth place with 16.

In that match, PSG was actually able to press the opponent's defense. But Donnarumma made a foul to prevent Le Havre striker Josue Casimir from scoring.

The Italian national team goalkeeper's effort to throw the ball was about to hit Casimir's head. Wasit Bastien Dechepy also gave a red card to Donnarumma.

Donnarumma's expulsion made coach Luis Enrique wary. The reason is, he has attracted Fabin Ruiz who was injured to be replaced by Manuel Ugarte.

However, he had to make a substitution by bringing in goalkeeper Arnau Tenas and pulling front player Bradley Barcola.

Brmain with 10 people did not make PSG experience a decline. Even Les Parisiens managed to take the lead when captain Kylian Mbappe's right-footed shot successfully broke into the opponent's goal in the 23rd minute. He used a cross from Ousmane Dembele.

The score 1-0 for PSG and lasted until the first 45 minutes. The reason is that no more goals were created.

In the second half, PSG did not lower the tempo of the game. But Le Havre, who is ahead of the ball, tried to equalize.

However, their efforts never paid off. Tenas, who played this season for the first time, was able to play brilliantly.

At least he made two brilliant saves from Mohamed Bayo.

On the other hand, PSG managed to increase the advantage through Vitinha in the 89th minute.

He released a hard shot that failed to be stopped by defender Gautier Lloris and could not be reached by the goalkeeper. The score changed to 2-0 and PSG won the match.
