The match between Paris Saint-Germain Women and RC Lens, initially set to end in a 1-1 draw, ultimately turned in favor of the Parisians. The FFF’s Federal Regulations and Disputes Commission awarded the northern club a penalty for fielding a suspended player.
“After reviewing the case, it was decided to award RC Lens a penalty loss, with the winning match benefiting Paris-Saint-Germain,” the FFF’s Federal Regulations and Disputes Commission stated in a statement.
RC Lens Women are paying dearly for an administrative error. During the trip to Paris Saint-Germain, the northerners snatched a deserved draw (1-1), but the fielding of a suspended player changed everything. After reviewing the case, the FFF decided to award the winning match to PSG, transforming the point from the draw into three points for the Parisians.”
This kind of decision, rare at this level, underlines the importance of rigorous suspension management. For the players from the capital, this administrative victory strengthens their position at the top of the standings, while Lens, victim of its own inattention, sees a result that could have mattered disappear.
