Press review: PSG/Lyon, suspense back and backups disappointing | OneFootball

This Monday, April 20, the French press (from a sporting perspective) focused, on the Paris Saint-Germain side, on the 1-2 defeat against Olympique Lyonnais last night in the closing match of the 30th round of Ligue 1 2025-2026.

L’Equipe –

Obviously, the defeat hurts. That is always the case in sports, even more so for a club that always aims for victory. There is also this setback in a period of euphoria. However, we should be careful not to suddenly dramatize things. PSG were not as good, but they were not completely out of it, and coach Luis Enrique’s choices were not inconsistent.

Paris dominated, while Lyon were devilishly efficient. That is football; it can happen. All the more so after intense Champions League quarter-finals. They must quickly move on, without doubting unnecessarily. The good news is that PSG can bounce back as early as Wednesday against Nantes in the postponed match from the 26th round of Ligue 1 2025-2026 (kick-off at 7 p.m.).:

The bad news remains Vitinha’s injury (the 26-year-old midfielder), for which we are still awaiting further details.
