VAR Confirms Penalty, but Balance Prevails at Stade Jean Bouin

The Decision That Divides
At the 30th minute, Intensity surges when the referee points to the spot. Thibault De Smet concedes the penalty, and VAR confirms after review. Ilan Kebbal shows ice-cold composure, placing his strike with surgical precision (32'), handing Paris FC the advantage. The goalscorer's 8.3 rating underscores his first-half dominance—four key passes orchestrating the home side's attacking threat.
The Equaliser That Stings
Yet Auxerre refuse to fold. Eight minutes later, S. Diomande levels from L. Sinayoko's cross (40'), restoring Balance at 1-1 before half-time. The match pivots: two lead changes in ten minutes expose a contest where neither possession (55%-45% to Paris) nor shot count (11 apiece) can break the deadlock.
