Luis Enrique Breaks Silence on Ballon d’Or Controversy After Shocking Marseille Loss
Luis Enrique dismissed the idea that the Ballon d’Or ceremony was a distraction after Paris Saint-Germain suffered a surprise defeat to Marseille in Le Classique.
PSG had not lost an away league game to Marseille since 2011, but came unstuck this time around at the Stade Velodrome, with Nayaf Aguerd’s fourth-minute header proving enough for the hosts to claim the spoils.
The game had been pushed back one day from Sunday due to storm warnings in the south of France, meaning it clashed with the Ballon d’Or ceremony in Paris, at which their injured forward Ousmane Dembele was named the best male player on the planet, with PSG winning the Club of the Year award and Luis Enrique claiming the Johan Cruyff Trophy.
