On the evening the first matches of the tenth round of the French championship were played. The teams that met were "Lens", ranked 18th on the table, and the title defender "Paris Saint-Germain". Parisians dominated by controlling the ball (70% to 30% of the match time), however, an interesting fact was that not a single corner kick was taken during the 90 minutes. Meanwhile, the opponents started the game from the corner flag three times. The hosts broke through first. Already in the tenth minute Adam Coulibaly scored a goal. However, the "Lens" players' lead did not last long, as Yohan Cabaye equalized the score with a long-range shot. Just a few minutes later, after a precise shot from the French national team defender, the capital team's defender Maxwell even more impressively scored the second goal within the opponent's 30-meter distance, outrunning the goalkeeper. Later, in the second half, the hosts' representative Jean-Philippe Gbamin was sent off the field for a second yellow card. Then, a minute later, Edinson Cavani converted a penalty from 11 meters, and two minutes later he earned himself both yellow and red cards. A few moments later, another "Lens" player - Jerome Le Moigne - also had to leave the field. The end of the match was a bit calmer.
