Paris Saint-Germain began the campaign to defend its title, champion of the French League, by falling against its host Lens for the first time since 2006, with a score of 0-1 Thursday, in the second stage, affected by the many absences in its ranks as a result of infection with the Corona virus.
Coach Thomas Tuchel's team entered the postponed Thursday meeting of the second stage, since he also missed the first stage (against Metz) due to the delay of his season as a result of reaching the Champions League final, where he lost to Bayern Munich, in an unenviable situation.

The capital club had to involve my 18-year-old son, Arno Kalimwindo, and Moroccan-born Qais Ruiz Othello in the front line, as a result of the infection of both Brazilian Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, the Argentinians Angel Di Maria and Mauro Ikari with the Corona virus, which also affected the other Argentine midfielder Leandro Paredes, and the Costa Rican goalkeeper Keylor Navas and Brazilian defender Marquinhos.

He defended Saint-Germain's lair, the 20-year-old Polish goalkeeper Marcin Polka, because the new Spanish goalkeeper Sergio Rico was still a player in the ranks of Seville on the original date of the match on August 29 before it was postponed with a controversial decision in order to give the players of the French capital club a share of They rest longer after their return from Lisbon after losing the Champions League final on August 23.

After feeling that he could threaten the defending champions, Lens began the second half with force, hoping for the possibility of achieving his first victory over the Parisian club since they beat them 3-1 on the fifth of November 2006 in the capital.

He achieved what he wanted in the 57th minute when Polka missed the ball to Italian Marco Verratti, so Ghanaago snatched it and fired it into the net, scoring his first goal with a lens shirt, which he joined this summer from Nice.

The champion appeared completely shaken after the goal and almost shaken his net again, but that Burka starred in the face of the header of Simon Banza (63).

Then the pace of the match calmed down amid the inability of either side to reach the other's area with a clear field advantage for Saint Germain in the last twenty minutes in search of avoiding a painful defeat four days before the first match at home, which brought him together on Sunday, with his opponent and runner-up Marseille, but he was unable to Get to the net.
