It seems like the French championship isn’t lacking in excitement even when Zlatan Ibrahimovic isn’t stealing the show. D. Berbatov’s stunning goal for Monaco against Nice certainly added to the drama of the weekend.
While Paris Saint-Germain secured the Coupe de la Ligue title with a 2-1 victory over Lyon, their celebration for a second French championship title will have to wait until Wednesday due to Monaco’s win against Nice.
Monaco’s coach, Claudio Ranieri, expressed his satisfaction with his team’s performance, particularly highlighting Berbatov’s exquisite goal as “caviar.” Despite the disappointment of the Cup, Ranieri praised his players for their character and pride. He also emphasized the importance of their upcoming match against Ajaccio, aiming for another win to secure six points from two matches.
Interestingly, Ranieri’s comments also touched on the presence of Dmitry Rybolovlev in the stands, indicating that the vice-president, Vadim Vasilyev, assured him of his position for the next season.
Overall, it seems like there’s plenty of excitement and anticipation in the French championship, with unexpected twists and turns keeping fans on the edge of their seats.
