(Ligue 1 2023/2024): Highlights LE HAVRE - PSG

Potentially still feeling the effects of a grueling Champions League contest with Newcastle, Paris Saint-Germain resumed their Ligue 1 Uber Eats title charge away to AVE on Sunday. Camerawaters at home after six straight league wins. With a big 2-1 win at Toulouse sandwiched in the middle, LAC had drawn 0-0 in four of their last five. Another would suit the Normans just fine against their star-studded visitors. Carlos Soler made up for getting in a bit of a fangle, clearing off the line for Gautier Loris. Previous Ligue 1 Uber Eats goal came just five minutes into an eventual 2-0 draw with Montpellier, but couldn't net again here. While Luca Elsner said they played better with 10 men, Andre Ayew's worst possible debut sent off two minutes after entering as a sub. It took just 10 minutes for Gianluigi Donnarumma to be the first PSG keeper to be sent off in a league match since Keylor Navas in November 2021. Oh no, Denis Herreña on for his debut, Bradley Parkula subbed, Manuel Gatti also on for an injured Fabian Ruiz. All that happening, Kylian Mbappe so close to scoring against the 30th different team in Ligue 1 Uber Eats, but in truth the World Cup winner 2022 World Cup top scorer didn't have to wait long to finally make it 30 and out. Brilliant finish from the edge of the area, 15th of this season for the league's top scorer in just 13 appearances and that's eight in his last six league outings. La Havre unbeaten in the last five league matches, the longest run in the top flight since the end of 1998, yet despite a man advantage that run at risk. Yassin Kechta in the right place, a little too straight at Arnaud Denas, just one Ligue 2 Becket goal to his name couldn't add a top flight moment. PSG aiming for a seventh straight win, it'll be the first time since May-September 2021. Ousmane Doubelly was not far from the bottom corner, even considering the 10 men of Paris still surprised they had below 40 percent possession first time since November 2012 against Montpellier, yet despite that Arnaud Denas was making a debut to remember. Sub Nabil Aloui was then stopped twice brilliantly by the under-21 Spanish international, seven saves in total for the former Barcelona stopper. The best performance from a goalkeeper making his first top flight appearance since Maury Diaw for Clermont against PSG. And then the champions wrapped up a hard-fought victory with just a minute left of the 90. Vitinha's strike deflected, looping in a fourth goal of the season for the Portuguese international. That's as many as his last two league campaigns with Porto, then PSG. Despite the early sending off of Donnarumma, the champions seventh straight league win sees them stretch to four points clear at the top, now out of intent after a first loss in six.
