Paris Saint-Germain failed to get past tie 3 to 3 against Le Havre in the rain at Parque dos Príncipes, this Saturday (27th) in the 31st round of Ligue 1.
The result once again postpones the party for the Parisian club, which needed three points to achieve it.
Despite the draw, PSG can secure the twelfth French championship title in its history this Sunday if Monaco do not win on their visit to Lyon.
But in addition to prolonging the wait for what seems to be an inevitable victory of the title, the draw against the 15th placed team in the table, and after losing 3-1, is not the best incentive to face the first game of the matches with optimism. Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday against Borussia Dortmund in Germany.
The players led by coach Luis Enrique had to fight against a bigger deficit for almost the entire game, although they showed personality before the Champions League clash with the second leg scheduled for May 7th.
The result was at least better than that achieved by their next opponent: Dortmund were beaten hours earlier by Leipzig (4-1).
“We are champions, whether there is a party or not, I don’t care, we are champions of the league, there is no doubt. There is a 29 goal advantage over second place. I already feel like champion, even if we don’t get more points we will be champions”, said Luis Enrique in the press conference after the game.
“We will try to be in the Champions League final, that is our objective, to which we will dedicate all our commitment, all our effort, and I think the team is in the best moment of the season without a doubt”, he added.
PSG’s defense had many gaps, with Brazilian Lucas Beraldo and Portuguese Danilo slow and passive for Le Havre’s first two goals.
