Ligue 1 Showdown: PSG vs Lyon as Gomis Debuts Special Century Boots
Paris Saint-Germain will host Olympique Lyonnais this Sunday in a high-stakes Ligue 1 clash, with both pride and positioning on the line. For the Parisians, it’s a critical test of resilience following their recent Champions League exit, while Lyon will be looking to spoil the capital club’s comeback hopes.
Adding intrigue to the evening is Lyon striker Bafétimbi Gomis, who will take to the pitch in a unique pair of commemorative boots. Designed by Puma, the specially made footwear honours Gomis’s recent milestone—scoring his 100th Ligue 1 goal. That landmark was reached just last weekend in Lyon’s victory over Valenciennes, cementing his place as one of the league’s most prolific scorers.
Gomis, a former Saint-Étienne forward, has become a talismanic figure for Lyon, and Sunday’s match provides a stage worthy of his achievement. With the spotlight firmly on him, he’ll be aiming to extend his tally against none other than the reigning French champions.
The limited-edition boots are not only a personal tribute but also part of a wider celebration. Gomis has announced that the boots will be up for grabs via his official Twitter and Facebook accounts, allowing fans the chance to own a piece of Ligue 1 history.
Kick-off is set for Sunday night at the Parc des Princes, where PSG will look to reaffirm their domestic dominance, and Gomis will seek to add another chapter to his Ligue 1 legacy.
