PSG’s players celebrate after winning the French League Cup final match against Lyon in Saint Denis on Friday.
The victory comes a week after they beat St Etienne 1-0 in the French Cup final, the first competitive match on French soil since the coronavirus shutdown. The masked France superstar watched from the stands as Lyon kept PSG at bay for two hours before having Brazilian defender Rafael sent off for chopping down Angel Di Maria on the edge of the box late in extra time.
In the meantime, they at least seized their last chance to win a domestic treble, their fourth in the last six years. The League Cup, an unloved competition, will be discontinued next season.Covid-19 concerns did not prevent a crowd from attending this match, but only 3,500 fans were allowed inside the 80,000-capacity venue.
As a consequence, the two cup finals are the only competitive match practice PSG will have managed in five months before facing Atalanta. Marco Verratti was outstanding in the Paris midfield, a major positive for Tuchel who along with Mbappe’s injury also has major problems at fullback.
