FULL TIME Saint-Etienne 1-3 PSG
Scorers: Bounaga 22′; Marquinhos 45+2′, 90+1′, Di María 79′
Chaos reigns supreme in Ligue 1 as there VAR-overturned an opener, a slew of yellow cards, one clattering red and a Lionel Messi assist to go along with Sergio Ramos’ starting debut for PSG today.
The Brazilian thought he had given PSG an early lead only for a VAR check to rule out the opener for an offside and midway through the half, VAR hurt the visitors again when it overturned an on-field decision to rule out a Denis Bounaga goal on the rebound.

The controversy continued in the moments before the break as Timothée Kolodziejczak saw red for a late tackle on Kylian Mbappé as he tore through on goal and from the resulting free-kick, Marquinhos levelled with a header from Lionel Messi’s delivery.
