Pfft. French football.

On TV in front of me, PSG are playing a home league match against GFC Ajaccio. "Who are they?", I thought.

Turns out they are this lot:

That is, the 'lesser-known Ajaccio club" (Ajaccio is in Corsica, it turns out), long overshadowed by the mighty AC Ajaccio, obviously. Their ground held less than 3000 last season (I think they expanded it a bit over the summer).

And they're playing PSZ, Zlatan et al, who before the match paraded the sixty squillion quid signing Di Maria on the pitch.

Oh, and PSG have just scored. Suspect the first of a few,

Bonkers.
