Nizza Shocks PSG, Wins 1-0 in Ligue 1 Clash

Underdog Nizza Stuns Star-Studded PSG

David Goubert's Goal Secures Unlikely Victory

In a stunning turn of events, OGC Nice pulled off a major upset by defeating Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 at the Allianz Riviera on Sunday. The underdogs secured the victory thanks to a goal from David Goubert in the 88th minute, leaving the reigning Ligue 1 champions in shock.

PSG, boasting a star-studded lineup including Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappé, were heavy favorites heading into the match. However, Nizza's organized defense and relentless pressure kept the Parisians at bay.

The match marked Christophe Galtier's first return to Nice since leaving the club to join PSG in the summer. The former Nice manager was greeted with a hostile reception from the home crowd, but his team's performance silenced the jeers.

Goubert's Heroics Secure Three Points

The game remained goalless for the majority of the contest, with both teams struggling to create clear-cut chances. However, in the dying minutes, Nizza's persistence paid off.

In the 88th minute, Goubert received the ball on the left flank and drove towards the PSG penalty area. With no PSG defender closing him down, Goubert unleashed a powerful shot that flew past Gianluigi Donnarumma and into the top corner.

The goal sent the Allianz Riviera into raptures and sparked wild celebrations on the pitch. Nizza had pulled off one of the biggest upsets in recent Ligue 1 history.

PSG's Struggles Continue

The defeat extends PSG's poor run of form in recent weeks. After winning their first three league games of the season, Galtier's team has now lost three of their last five.

The result raises questions about PSG's ability to compete for the Ligue 1 title this season. Despite their immense talent, the team has struggled to find consistency and has shown defensive vulnerabilities.

With the international break approaching, PSG will have time to regroup and address their issues. However, they face a tough test when they return to action, with a trip to Marseille on the horizon.
