Ranieri warns Monaco defence

Thursday, 3 October 2013





The Italian has called on his Ligue 1 leaders to tighten up ahead of the visit of Saint-Etienne on Saturday.

Claudio Ranieri has warned his Monaco side they must improve defensively if they are to continue their fine start to the season.

The newly-promoted Ligue 1 side top the division having remained unbeaten in their first eight matches of the season, but have drawn two of their last three fixtures 1-1 after falling behind.

Enyeama gets praise on Ligue 1 debut

Monday, 12 August 2013




Vincent Enyeama earned praise from his coach and teammate following an impressive debut in the French Ligue 1 with Lille.

Having been installed as the first choice goalkeeper by manager Rene Girard, Enyeama started in Lille's opening league game of the season at home to Lorient.

There were few chances created by either side in a match decided by Belgian teenager Dovick Origi's line strike, but the Nigeria goalkeeper was tested twice by efforts from Yann Joffre and Vincent Aboubakar.

'They had nothing before' - Ibrahimovic blasts PSG support

Sunday, 10 March 2013



The Swedish front man accuses the Parisiens' fans of ingratitude and suggests they need to be more patient after his side came from behind to defeat Nancy in Ligue 1

Zlatan Ibrahimovic has hit out at jeering supporters who displayed their frustration during Paris Saint-Germain's 2-1 victory over Nancy on Saturday.

Sections of the crowd at Parc des Princes whistled and booed when les Parisiens fell behind to Benjamin Moukandjo's first-half strike, only for two Ibrahimovic goals to complete a reversal and seal three points for the hosts.

After the game the Swede was clearly annoyed by the impatience of some PSG fans and indicated that he did not appreciate their reaction to the team going 1-0 down.

"They ask a lot," the former Inter and Barcelona striker was quoted as saying by Le Parisien.

"This is strange in view of what they had in the past. Because before, they had nothing.

"I've played in many big clubs and I know that nothing is ever easy."

The victory saw PSG take a commanding lead in Ligue 1, moving five points clear of Olympique Lyonnais, who play Olympique de Marseille on Sunday.

Despite the result, Salvatore Sirigu appeared much more critical of his side's performance than his team-mate and urged improvement in future games.

"We must get it into our heads that we need to be more aggressive," the 26-year-old goalkeeper stressed.

"We absolutely have to improve. It went wrong in Reims [a 1-0 defeat in the previous league game] and it could have been the same this time."

Paris Saint-Germain sit first in Ligue 1 with 57 points from 28 games.
