Valbouena for Paris Saint-Germain: “If you lose, you don’t speak”
Mathieu Valbouena slammed Paris Saint-Germain and in particular Leonardo and Verratti, who protested against the referees in the Nantes defeat, stressing that it’s better to remain silent when you lose.
Paris Saint-Germain not only failed to win despite Lionel Messi, Neymar and Killian Ebape attacking Nantes, but also suffered a 3-1 defeat. in the 25th race from Ligue 1 Mathieu Valbouena slammed the French club for complaining about the referees.
The Parisians in particular protested heavily after the final of the match, with the team’s sporting director Leonardo but also Marco Verratti taking the referee in stride, stressing that he had wronged them and that his decisions affected the final outcome of the match. .
Speaking to RMC, the 37-year-old Olympiakos midfielder said: “Paris faced a great team like Nantes who deserved to win. Verati has to stop talking like that at some point. He has to speak on the field. I have nothing against him, he’s a great player.
But when you lose, you keep quiet and question yourself. I find it small. You deserve defeat. Yes, the referee made mistakes, but “I haven’t seen in other games Paris take advantage of refereeing decisions (e.g. in the Lyon game) to mention Leonardo, Verratti or any member of the team.”
