The results of the French clubs are very positive after this first day of the championship phase of the new Champions League. Among the four teams involved, only Lille was beaten (by Sporting, 2-0). Paris Saint-Germain won against Girona (1-0), while AS Monaco and Brest won against FC Barcelona and Sturm Graz (2-1) respectively. In a press release published on page X of the Professional Football League, Vincent Labrune congratulated the three victorious teams this week in C1.
” The performance of French European clubs is our number one sporting priority. Maintaining 5th place in the UEFA index is an absolute necessity for the international exposure of our clubs and to capture revenue from European cups. In this respect, I would like to salute the exceptional start of French clubs in the Champions League this season. With three victories in the first round, French clubs have offered a historic performance and a wealth of emotion and joy to their supporters. I was in Guingamp this Thursday evening to attend the first match of Stade Brestois. It will remain an unforgettable evening, a historic moment for a great first. A big congratulations to Stade Brestois and a big thank you to the En Avant Guingamp club which made it possible to host this match. This evening will remain all the more unforgettable as AS Monaco also managed to beat FC Barcelona thanks to goals from young stars, those who bring joy to Ligue 1 McDonald’s every weekend. And of course I won’t forget Paris Saint-Germain’s victory the day before. There are still many games to play in this new Champions League, but I wanted to highlight the start of the French clubs. Each in their own way, they started the competition perfectly and flew the flag for Ligue 1 McDonald’s, French football. “, indicated the president of the LFP.
