“Who runs the world?” Girls! » It’s a little after 8 p.m. when Grace Geyoro and her teammates from the PSG women’s team enter to warm up on their new pitch for the very first time, to the rallying cry of Beyoncé.
Who says brand new speaker, inaugurated for the first time this Tuesday evening on the occasion of the reception of Losc in D1 Arkema, necessarily says good sound. “The atmosphere is quite nice,” enthuses Mathilde, who came to the stadium this chilly evening with her boyfriend. There is music, a warm welcome, everything is well signposted. »
An impeccable lawn
PSG head gardener Jonathan Calderwood and his teams have been hard at work since early Tuesday morning to clear snow from the pitch and pamper the lawn with great blasts of hot air. Result: she is fantastic. “If we were still at Georges-Lefebvre, I don’t know if we would have been able to play the match tonight,” whispers a club employee.
The 450 seats in this new setting had no trouble finding takers, despite the bitter cold of the night in Poissy. There were even people leaning on the railings all around the field, adjoining the Campus building reserved for the women’s section and which will only be used to host the girls’ matches. And, of course, the most loyal and regular supporters. In total, 559 people, to be exact, attended the match easily won by PSG (6-0).
Among them, Mourad and his son Médine, 9 years old. It was the young man who insisted on braving the cold and coming to see his idols. Her opinion on the new working environment for the women’s team? ” Amazing ! A thousand times better than Camp des Loges. » His father agrees: “It has nothing to do with it. It’s huge! We’re having fun discovering all this and we’re expecting a great atmosphere for this match. »
There was a great atmosphere: exclamations at each action, a few songs for both teams and, inevitably, beautiful explosions of joy when Katoto and Baltimore scored goals. Opposite, the teammates of Amandine Henry, who played her first minutes in the Lille jersey, were not able to do much.
” Everything is beautiful “
Same wonder in the eyes of Iliana, 10 years old, very proud when announcing that she plays “attacker” for the young people of PSG, and her father Farat. “We came to Camp des Loges very often to see the girls, almost every match. From what little we have seen of the Campus, it is magnificent. It changes, it no longer has anything to do with it. The terrain is beautiful, everything is beautiful. Even the entrance has nothing to do with it. And for the players, it’s so much better. »
The young girl is already dreaming of coming to train here one day. It’s her dream, she says! But there’s no time to start dreaming, you have to sit in the stands and wrap yourself up in warm clothes. The teams’ entrance is to “Who said I would”, by Phil Collins. It almost feels like we’re at the Park!
