Paris Saint-Germain won the title of champion of France for the ninth time last season. It happened in the short program, but this result would hardly have changed if teams played a full championship. In the summer, the Parisians were able to add two more trophies to their museum: the French Cup and the League Cup. Tomas Tuchel’s team was able to make it to the Champions League final, but the fans’ dreams were not destined to come true. The red-blues lost in the decisive match against Bayern Munich (0:1). The new season of League1 does not remember such a disastrous start in the performance of the champion. In the first game the coronavirus knocked out six players from the roster and formally, the defeat from the major league debutant could be attributed to illness, although those who entered the field could strengthen the composition of any football grand. In the second match, PSG conceded in the first half, which ultimately became a decisive moment, while the second shame in a row was decorated with 14 yellow and five red cards. Today hosts are in last place. They have zero points and the same number of goals. Icardi, Marquinhos and Mbappe, who have coronavirus, will not be able to enter the field. Neymar, Paredes and Kurazawa will miss the game due to suspension.
The “Nuggets” took too long to harness. This was especially noticeable in the first series against “Utah”. Macle Malone’s wards were tormented on the floor, as the jazzmen always found how to level the score in the series, but in the seventh match everything fell into place. Denver made it to the second round, but the problems did not diminish. Nikola Jokic and the company had again to give their best, as the Clippers from the very beginning began to put pressure from all sides. The Nuggets were tolerated as best as they could and at one point they rebuilt and began to improve, thanks to which they now have a chance to compete for a ticket to the West’s final.
