The PSG-Marseille match is the famous derby of France. But at the end of Le Classic, football was no longer the title. Paris saw Kurukshetra instead of football. After the stipulated time, the referee showed a total of 5 players of the two teams a red card. Neymar, who is one of the 3 players in the PSG, also saw a red card. In all, the referee had to show the yellow card a total of 18 times in the entire 90 minutes. PSG lost the match 1-0 to Marseille at home. With this, the French champions won the second match in a row in the league.
Neymar was sent off for slapping Alvaro Gonzalez on the head from behind after receiving a second yellow card. At the end of the match, Neymar claimed that he had been the victim of racist remarks from him on the field. The Brazilian footballer also demanded punishment for Gonzalez in a post on Twitter. After the match, Neymar wrote on Twitter targeting Gonzalez, "My only regret is not being able to hit him in the back without punching him."

The way the war turned into a match
The two teams have been playing body-based football since the beginning. The referee showed yellow card 4 times in the first 13 minutes of the match. In the 11th minute, Neymar and Dimitri Payet got a yellow card for a fight for possession.
Marseille went to the break from the front. But Neymar had already started arguing with Marseille defender Gonzalez. Neymar was also heard using the word "racism" on TV during the break. In the second half, the game did not diminish.
In the fifth minute of added time (95) Neymar and Gonzalez were arguing even before a Marseille goal. After that, Dario Benedetto punched his compatriot Leandro Paredes in the middle to take possession of the goal. With that incident of the two Argentines, the match immediately turned into a war.
Paredes was pushed by Benedetto and immediately got up and attacked him. With this, the players of both the teams started fighting. Inside the jitters, Marseille's Jordan Amavi and PSG's Levin Kurzawa both kicked each other. Amavi, Kurzawa, Paredes and Benedetto were all shown red cards by the referee and sent off.
However, the referee did not see Neymar's body. He went off the field at the suggestion of VAR and after seeing the replay, he also dropped Neymar from the field.
The 18th yellow card is the highest in a single match in the 21st century history of the League.
What is Neymar saying?
Neymar tweeted two hours after the match. In the first tweet, he wrote, "The only regret I should have had was the punch in the face." The first tweet was made by Neymar after the end of the match.
Shortly afterwards, Neymar demanded Gonzalez's punishment. He also criticized VAR. "It's easy to judge my ferocity with VAR. Now I want the racist to call me a mother on the field," he wrote. Then? When I flick Rainbow, I get punished. I was kicked out of the field. What will happen to them? What will happen to them now? "
Marseille coach says racism has no place in football
Marseille coach Andres Vios Boas has a bad fortune. For the first time since 2011, Marseille have lost to PSG. This victory was supposed to be memorable for him. But at the end of the match they have faded. At the end of the match, however, he expressed some skepticism about Neymar's claim: "There is no place for racism in football. Of course it should not be tolerated. But I don't think anything like that happened in the match. Although I'm not sure yet. I need to check further."
How was the match?
Neymar and Anhel de Maria were both in the PSG XI after recovering from the coronavirus. However, none of them were so rhythmic.
In the 31st minute, Thovan scored a goal in a corner kick from Payet's free kick. PSG's attack in the second half increased the edge though. However, Marseille goalkeeper Steven Mandadar saved at least two great saves for PSG. Neymar also failed to put the ball in the net from the front of the goal by hitting the slide once. In the second half, Benedetto and De Maria both had one goal each in the VAR.
With this, after 36 years, PSG lost in the first two matches of the league. The Parisians finished 13th in the league 36 years ago. Thomas Tukhal's team could not score any goal in the first match of the league with Lance. The last time PSG saw a loss in two league matches was in 198. This form of PSG 21 days after the Champions League final is also a cause for concern.
PSG-Marseille is the latest rivalry
The tradition of rivalry between the two clubs is old. Younger club in age than PSG's Marseille. In 1993, Marseille became the first team in France to win the Champions League. This time, after reaching the final of the PSG Champions League, the anger of the PSG supporters increased in Marseille and another time. The day after the Champions League final, Marseille police were forced to ban PSG jerseys in the city. Earlier in the semifinals, a group of Marseille supporters were accused of harassing PSG supporters.
After PSG's defeat in the Champions League final, the Marseille fans cheered and became the headlines. In Marseille that night, supporters set off fireworks and marched through the streets to celebrate PSG's defeat. These recent events added even more heat to the classic before the match.
