After PSG’s unexpected defeat against Sporting (1:2), the fans of the Parisian club exploded with anger. Although the European champion team controlled the game, they showed low efficiency in attack and mistakes in defense in the last minutes.

Fans have identified this summer’s new arrivals as the real culprit: the goalkeeper Lucas Knight and defender Ilya Zabarny. Chevalier was criticized for Luis Suarez’s pass to the centre, which brought the second goal, and Zabarny was criticized for the Ukrainian player’s poor play on the right wing of the defence, even though he played for only ten minutes.

Fans even dubbed them the “double maléfique” (“evil duo”) and demanded that the club reconsider its personnel decisions. PSG now have a chance to improve in the following matches to maintain their position in European competition.
