Paris Saint-Germain narrowly avoided a fourth straight defeat in all competitions after winning in stoppage time against Lille (4-3) on Sunday afternoon.

A match marked by a surprising image, that of the presence of sports adviser Luis Campos alongside Christophe Galtier at the end of the match.

It is a symbolic image and heavy with meaning.

Then led by Lille in the 70th minute of the match, the PSG players saw their sports adviser Luis Campos come down from the stands to go and stand alongside the Paris coach and… give instructions!

An attitude that reflects the unease within the Parisian team, despite the victory obtained at the very end of the match thanks to a free kick from Lionel Messi.

Internet users taken aback

Some Internet users were taken aback by this presence of the technician at the edge of the field, alongside the Parisian coach.

What is Luis Campos doing at the edge of the pitch?

His place on in the stands.


He comes next to Galtier and his staff.


What is this club.

#PSG is dream

During the defeat in Monaco (3-1) last week, he spoke sharply to the team at halftime, according to Prime Video.

During this match at the Louis II stadium, "there is no interference at all, Luis is passionate, a competitor thirsty for victory", reacted Galtier on Sunday.

"Passion"...

Paris Saint-Germain football adviser Luis Campos does "not interfere at all", assured his coach, Christophe Galtier, when asked about this restless presence on the edge of the sidelines.

The Portuguese took advantage of this descent from the stands to harangue the referees and also his players.

Against Lille, "I am in front and I do not see what is happening behind", continues Galtier.

"Images are circulating, but Luis is passionate. What does that indicate? A great desire to succeed collectively, with our players, our supporters and all the technical staff, of which he is a part".

“There is no technical-tactical intervention, there is passion, passion, passion,” adds Galtier.

A passion, but also a relief.

On Lionel Messi's winning goal after added time, Christophe Galtier ran onto the lawn to jump into the arms of his players.

Luis Campos was unleashed on the fourth referee.

Behaviors which reflect the difficult period that PSG is currently going through and which exasperate the club's supporters.

Arrived this summer, Campos, who chose Galtier as coach, has been criticized in recent weeks for the disappointing performance of the recruits he has chosen.
