Timothé Le Monnier tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere. After the first half Paris Saint Germain were leading 0-2.

After some careless play in the Argenteuil defense, Raphaël Lahaye kicked a shot that curved into the net to the right of Timothé Le Monnier.

Timothé Le Monnier tensed up and prepared to dive, but the shot went over the goal with him having to interfere.
