Sensation! PSG expelled from the Coupe de France. A beautiful goal decided [WIDEO]

The fate at the stage of the 1/8 finals of the national cup will connect Olympique de Marseille and Paris Saint Germain, i.e. the vice-leader and leader of league games in France. The meeting took place at the legendary Stade Velodrome, and the hosts won 2:1. This is the third defeat for PSG this year.

A wonderful goal by Malinowski was decisive

Although the domestic cup, especially in the initial phase, is often neglected by the leading clubs, both coaches designated their best XIs to play. Kylian Mbappe was absent from the visiting team, but the reason for this was an injury.

Marseille took the lead in the 31st minute Alexis Sanchez, who confidently used the penalty kick. It was dictated by a foul by Sergio Ramos. The Spaniard redeemed himself just before the break. Neymar scored from a corner kick, and the former Real Madrid captain, known for his ability to score goals with headers from set pieces, was the best player in the rivals’ penalty area.

However, this did not help, because in the 57th minute Ruslan Malinovsky gave the hosts the lead again. The Ukrainian, who came to Velodrome in this year’s winter transfer window, sent a real bomb from just outside the penalty area. PSG goalkeeper Gigi Donnarumma had no chance.

This amazingly beautiful hit gave promotion to Igor Tudor’s charges. The elimination of PSG from the French Cup is a confirmation of the great form of Marseille, for which it was already the seventh victory this year. Regular triumphs allowed her to move up to the vice-leader of Ligue 1. In domestic competitions, they lose eight points to Messi and the company.
