" They arrive! At 19:28, the cry descended from the back of the stands at the Robert-Bobin stadium. The PSG bus indeed appeared behind the trees and the gala evening could begin. "Hey Kurzawa, you're going to get the whole game washed!" »: Linas-Montlhéry supporters quickly teased when they watched the Parisians join the locker room.
After watching in vain for Neymar or Mbappé, the supporters quickly turned to Edinson Cavani, captain for the occasion. In return, the Parisian striker addressed a small greeting. An hour later, during the composition of the teams, he will be the only Parisian not to be booed. His ovation will even remain the only slightly warm moment of the pre-match marked by a general calm in the enclosure.

Cavani accosted by a supporter
While the last spectators were trying to find a place, the first minutes of the match let the thousand ultra-Parisians sing without interruption as each action and ball won by the Linas-Montlhéry players triggered an ovation.
The opening score by Aouchiche (30th) was immediately followed by another episode of supporter invading the lawn. As had been the case with Mbappé au Parc, a young man rushed this time to Cavani to have him sign not a book but his shirt. He left the lawn framed by two stewards but ovationed by all the public.
When Linas got a penalty, the stadium sparkled flashes of mobile phones filming the moment. A clamor of disappointment accompanied Kanoute's failure. A few seconds later, Cavani put an end to all suspense. Cruel.
