On Sunday, November 9, the 12th round match of the French championship will take place, in which Lyon and PSG will meet. The referee’s opening whistle will sound at 21:45 Kyiv time.
Before this confrontation, the head coach of the Paris club Luis Enrique announced that four players are in the infirmary and will not be able to take the field in the upcoming match — these are wingers Ousmane Dembele and Desire Doue, as well as defenders Nuno Mendes and Achraf Hakimi.
According to the French press, PSG’s biggest problems are in defense, where the team has lost two important players. It is expected that those who are currently available — Marquinhos, Willian Pacho, Lucas Beraldo, and Illya Zabarnyi — will start for the Paris club.
It is worth noting that due to the shortage of defenders, Enrique called up 16-year-old David Boly to the first team, who can play on the right flank of defense.

The head coach of Bayern Munich, Vincent Kompany, commented on the injury of PSG defender Achraf Hakimi.

The head coach of Paris Saint-Germain, Luis Enrique, commented on his team’s loss in the 4th round match of the group stage of the Champions League against Bayern.
«Certainly, with equal players, Bayern was stronger. In the first half, we gave the opponent several very good opportunities and could have conceded more. Everything changed in the second half because we had one more player.
What will happen next? I cannot predict the future. We understand that the schedule is very tough. The next matches will not be easy,» Enrique’s words are cited by RMC Sport.

Ex-goalkeeper of Kyiv’s «Dynamo» Volodymyr Tsytkin shared his thoughts about the rumors that the French PSG intends to sign the goalkeeper of the national team of Ukraine and Portuguese «Benfica» Anatoliy Trubin as a replacement for the Russian Matvey Safonov, who is to be loaned out or sold.
«Anything can happen in life, but I think that’s not true. Let me explain. Taking the main goalkeeper of „Benfica“ and the national team of Ukraine as a substitute for PSG seems strange. Any footballer would prefer to play regularly in „Benfica“ rather than sit at PSG and only play on holidays.
If I were in Trubin’s place, I would stay in „Benfica“. Only through game practice did he earn his place in the national team’s starting lineup. If Anatoliy didn’t play for „Benfica“, Lunin would be the main choice for the national team. Out of two goalkeepers who don’t play, the preference goes to the „Real“ goalkeeper. Lunin is not worse than Trubin, but he doesn’t play, and any coach will always choose a goalkeeper with game practice.
Safonov? I don’t understand why he was taken at all. He is an average-level goalkeeper, nothing outstanding. I think these are some agent games.
Comparing Safonov to Trubin isn’t even worth it because the Russian is not a goalkeeper today. Quite frankly, he hasn’t played anywhere, and in the Paris club, he only sits on the bench. Where did Safonov play before PSG? „Krasnodar.“ And none of the PSG players even know where Krasnodar is,» said Tsytkin.
