in Ligue 1, PSG falls again, Monaco near the podium

Leksand extended the winning streak beat AIK

The leader PSG chained a second disappointment in a row in Ligue 1, Sunday against OL (0-1), a slump that does not know Monaco, close to the podium, nor Lille, now installed in fifth place, European. The last nine days of the championship promise suspense at all levels, and especially in the leading pack. The Parisians are not for nothing: they suffered a fifth defeat in 2023 in the league, the second consecutive after that against Rennes (0-2) before the international break, already at the Parc. They are only six points ahead of their pursuers, Lens (2nd, 60 points) and Marseille (3rd, 60 pts). And the calendar promises to be full-bodied before facing Nice then Lens, precisely. OL, ninth, wasted a penalty by Alexandre Lacazette (39th) before aiming just right by Bradley Barcola (56th), who came into play quickly to replace Amin Sarr, out through injury. The title is therefore far from won for PSG. And the fight for second place, directly qualifying for the Champions League, also promises to be hotly contested between Lens, OM and Monaco (4th, 57 pts), winner ric-rac from Strasbourg (4-3) on Sunday.
