In addition to the Player of the Month award, the Ligue de Football Professionnel also organizes other voting sessions, including the Best Goal award. For the month of August, Paris Saint-Germain was present with one player. Those selected were: João Neves (PSG), Lassine Sinayoko (Auxerre), Illan Kebbal (Paris FC), Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg (OM), and Sadibou Sané (Paris FC). Kebbal wins.
Our love for PSG may influence us, but we don’t feel like we’re guaranteed to be surprised: Neves’s expertly crafted overhead kick for the 3-0 draw against Toulouse didn’t win. Kebbal’s goal is undeniably beautiful. But it may be a little more “usual” than the Portuguese midfielder’s sequence. However, the votes have been cast and we must accept it. Everyone has their own preferences.
