Bouanga strike not enough as Saint-Etienne lose against Paris Saint-Germain

Denis Bouanga found the back of the net in Saint-Etienne’s 3-2 loss against Paris Saint-Germain in Sunday’s Ligue 1 game.

The 26-year-old has been delivering consistent performances since teaming up with the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard outfit.

Bouanga continued the impressive showings but his contribution at Parc des Princes was not enough to ensure his side avoided defeat against the reigning French champions.

The game started with both sides aiming to score an early goal but failed to realize their targets as their defences were on red alert.

The best chance in the first half fell the way of Senegal forward Pape Cisse, who powered a fine header towards goal after connecting with Romain Hamouma’s cross but goalkeeper Sergio Rico was there to save the effort.
