** PSG wins Arsenal in semifinals go**
This Tuesday night was the first semifinal match of the Champions League, between Paris Saint-Germain and Arsenal. Both teams were in great shape and offered high-level football for several weeks. The PSG was keen to redeem itself after its defeat against Nice and the defeat against the Gunners during the group phase.
The game was dominated by the PSG during the first period, before the players managed their advantage in the second half. Finally, it was on a goal of Ousmane Dembélé (0-1) that the club of the capital won.
This victory aroused many reactions, notably that of Sidney Govou, former attacker of the French team and emblematic figure of Olympique Lyonnais. Through his account X (ex-Twitter), he wanted to respond to the Lyon and Marseille supporters who accused him of supporting the PSG, while historically linked to OL.
He said: “Supporters Lyonnais, Marseilles, etc.: I am not Parisian, but I like football. And what this PSG proposes is exceptional. Despite your insults, I will never stop saying it. The day your teams will be at this level, I will also say, with even more pleasure for OL anyway.”
These statements were hailed by many football fans, who appreciated the sincerity and passion of the player, beyond rivalries between clubs.
