While Paris Saint-Germain won on Wednesday on the Monaco lawn (2-4), as part of an advanced match of the sixteenth day of Ligue 1, it was above all a decision by François Letexier which retained the attention of observers. In a face-to-face with Gianluigi Donnarumma, Wilfried Singo crushed his crampons on his opponent’s face, but escaped without the slightest card. Bixente Lizarazu reacted this Sunday.

Consultant for the show “Telefoot” the 1998 world champion chose this event as the highlight image of the week. And he expressed his incomprehension regarding the choice of the central referee. “Donnarumma’s injury. Really impressive injury and finally the lack of consistency in relation to the refereeing, because we remember the match between PSG and Marseille. Amine Harit who injures Marquinhos, with a mark on the chest. »

Inconsistency of Mr. Letexier

Explaining that François Letexier had then expelled the Marseillais, indicating that the mark on Marquinhos’ chest had confirmed his decision, Bixente Lizarazu did not understand why this time, the official had not based himself on what he had seen between Singo and Donnarumma. “There it’s more than a trace. It’s a scar with seventeen stitches. So it’s true that it’s a little inconsistent. »

And the former Bayern Munich player concluded: “To err is human. Mr. Letexier made a mistake. But it’s ultimately very surprising to have refereeing that is so different in a situation where there are two injured players, and one especially seriously injured. »
