Re: French Soccer League Predictions and Discussion Thread (Ligue 1)
PSG 2 - 1 Le Havre
This was a game that was played at PSG's home ground, at the Stade Océane. It was PSG's first game of the season in Ligue 1 and they didn't have Mbappe. Expectations were high because I wanted to see how PSG would play without Mbappe. When I saw the formation that the PSG coach chose to start the game:
I was wondering why the PSG coach chose to put Ibrahim Mbaye, who is 16 years old, on the starting line-up instead of João Neves. I also wondered why Ousmane Dembélé didn't start playing at the beginning of the game. It's a question that only the PSG coach knows the answer to. The fact is that PSG's performance in that first game was very good even though some good players didn't come on the pitch at the beginning of the game. PSG's next game will be against another weak team, so I see PSG also managing to win the next game

Some incorrect information in your post:
- The score in this match is Le Havre 1 - 4 PSG.
- The match was played at the Stade Oceane, but this was not PSG's home ground, but Le Havre.
PSG played well in their first league match, they even made a real difference with the 4 goals they had. Not a single player scored a brace, each goal came from Lee, Dembele, Barcola & Muani. Next PSG will face Montpellier, I don't agree to say Montpellier is a weak team even though in fact in every meeting they have with PSG, they are always defeated with a humiliating score, I'm sure that this time it will be different.
