The Lyonnaises can tremble!
PSG will defend tooth and nail its leader's chair for as long as possible.
After an almost perfect first part of the season (10 wins and a draw in 11 games), the Parisians have not experienced a cold snap for their first match of the year 2021.
In a trap match, facing the only opponent who had snatched a draw from them during the first leg (0-0), Christiane Endler's teammates achieved a serious match by winning (1-0) this Friday at the expense of Bordeaux during the 12th day of D1.
German midfielder Sara Däbritz made the difference with a nice cross shot at the entrance to the box after a millimeter serve from Perle Morroni just before the break.
“We're very happy because it's an important victory,” said midfielder Grace Geyoro.
We have been able to perform well.

During this meeting, the daughters of Olivier Echouafni kept their trademark, namely defensive solidity (2 goals conceded since the start of the season) and formidable efficiency in attack.
This 10th success in a row in D1 allows the Parisiennes to keep the lead in the standings with a head start over Lyon who won (3-0), at the same time, ahead of Reims.
The Lyonnaises, who have monopolized the titles of French champions since 2007, have found someone to talk to this season.
Never has the capital club found itself in such a favorable situation at this stage of the competition.
"We know that we are in the lead and that we must not make mistakes," says Geyoro.
We have a little weight on our shoulders with this place of leader, but it pushes us to the requirement.
"
The verdict of this D1 will undoubtedly come in 4 days on March 13 during the return match between the 2 teams in Lyon (the PSG had won 1-0 in the first leg).
Between this shock, PSG will play its round of 16 in the Champions League (first leg then return), the draw of which will take place on February 16.
"We have the capacity to do great things in this second part of the season," says Olivier Echouafni.
The objective is to go looking for titles.
