The third round of the "Ligue 1" championship was truly exceptional. In one round, as many as 10 red cards were issued. Four of them were shown in the match between "Montpellier" and "Auxerre", where both teams received two red cards each. Two such penalties were given to the players of "Nice", and one each to "Marseille", "Monaco", "Angers", and "Rennes". Including the card shown to their substitute Romain Salinas, "Rennes" had a total of 11 in this round. This number is a new "Ligue 1" record in the last 30 years. In the "Ligue 2" championship matches, 7 red cards were shown in this weekend's round. Also, the fastest goal in the top French division was scored. In the match between "Lille" and PSG, Kylian Mbappe scored from Lionel Messi's assist after only 8 seconds. 8 seconds - a new "Ligue 1" record, which was set by PSG.
