Chapter 199 The Integral Gap Narrows
"Marco!"

Lorient is on the edge of the penalty area on the right. Giroud signaled his teammate Estrada near the baseline to pass the ball to himself.

Hearing Giroud's shout, after pushing the ball two more steps horizontally, Estrada passed the inverted triangle to Giroud who had already moved into the penalty area.

Facing Lorient's goal, Giroud volleyed directly from the instep without stopping the ball. Unfortunately, the ball was blocked by the goalkeeper Odat with both hands, and then caught it with both hands when the ball rebounded from the ground.

"XXX!"

Jirou swears fiercely.

Giroud has been very upset in recent days, because Wang Zi actually expressed in media interviews that he is confident that he can win the league's top scorer this season. You must know that this is his biggest goal this year. (PS: The league's top scorer here simply refers to the league's Golden Boot winners, not the official individual awards issued by the league every season.)
"Arrogant guy!"

After seeing this interview, Giroud had already responded to Wang Zi in his heart.

After regaining his senses, Giroud continued to devote himself to the game. Now he desperately hopes to narrow the gap between himself and Wang Zi's three goals in the scorer list, because only in this way can he really use practical actions to fight back against the arrogance of Paris Saint-Germain's arrogance.

"Want to win the Golden Boot? How many rounds are left in the league? Also, have you asked me about Olivier Giroud?"

"The league title and league golden boot will be mine! Just wait and see!"

In the No.30 second round of Ligue [-], Paris Saint-Germain played against Auxerre Club at the Abbe Deschamps Stadium.

The time came to the No.70 minute of the second half. Patrick Gillo said: "Paris Saint-Germain is still in the lead. The free kick scored by Nene in the No. 203 minute of the game kept the 1:0 score until now."

"On the other side, as Paris Saint-Germain's most direct rival for the league championship, Montpellier is temporarily behind. The director in front of us sent us the real-time score situation. That is, 2 minutes ago, Montpellier defender Bedimo made a mistake and scored an own goal. So now Lorient temporarily leads Montpellier 1:0."

As soon as Patrick Gillo's voice fell, his partner Joan Lu who was sitting next to him said: "If this score is followed until the end of the game, it is definitely a good thing for Paris Saint-Germain, because in this way, Paris Saint-Germain can maintain the same points as Montpellier after this round of the league, and the two teams will tie for first place in the standings."

"Yes, if this is the case, then with six rounds left in the league, the suspense of the league championship may not be known until the last round, and the competition between the two teams will surely become more intense." Patrick Gillo nodded.

The two commentators were talking about the championship competition between Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier based on the real-time score situation. Neither of them expanded the scope of the championship competition to Lille, which is ranked behind Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier, because the next season will only be the competition between Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier.

As for Lille, No.3 in the standings?
Most likely no chance.

After all, everyone knows that Lille is currently seven points behind No.2 Paris Saint-Germain in terms of points, and the point difference with Montpellier, the league leader, is as much as ten points.

It is basically impossible for Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier to lose a few games in a row.

The score is still 1:0. Paris Saint-Germain still has the initiative even in the away game, and the ball possession rate is much higher than that of Auxerre at home.

So the game is kind of boring.

In the studio of French television, Patrick Guillot and Ioan Ruu had to chat about things other than the game to stimulate the lethargic nerves of the fans in front of the TV and make sure they didn't switch channels when their brains got hot.

"Wang said in the last round of interviews that he is confident of winning the league's top scorer this year, Yoan, what do you think?" Patrick Gillo felt that it would be very attractive to talk about Wang Zi in front of the fans.

"It's the interview on our TV station. I also watched it. Wang showed his strong self-confidence in the interview. I'm not surprised at all, because he really has the capital of self-confidence." Talking about this topic, Yoan Lu really became interested, and he continued: "Comparing the current league scorer list, we can see Wang's advantage in the league's Golden Boot. He scored three goals more than No.2 Olivier Giroud. Only the king can be so confident."

Since he wanted to continue the conversation, Patrick Gillo naturally chose to stand on the other side of the point of view: "Actually, I don't think Giroud has no chance of surpassing the king. The remaining few rounds of the league are really uncertain. It is not uncommon in the five major leagues to overtake and become the league's Golden Boot after all the league games. There are many such examples, such as..."
"Although there are only six rounds left in the league, it is still too early to talk about this. Anything can happen until the last second of the last round of the league."

"That's the reason. It's a good thing that Wang has confidence. Of course, Giroud doesn't have a chance. It depends on who is better between the two." Yoan Lu didn't refute his partner.

Seeing that Joan Lu was "uncomprehended", Patrick Gillo could only continue to say: "About the Ligue [-] Golden Boot competition this season, Twitter is also quite popular. The main reason is that Wang's agent Mendes reposted his interview video and wrote that Wang is this season's Ligue [-] Golden Boot. The popularity of European super agents is very strong."

"I read the comments on Mendes' Twitter. Some support Wang, some are not optimistic about Wang, and some wait for Mendes to be slapped in the face. In short, there are all kinds of comments..." Patrick Gillo said with a smile: "Anyway, Wang has already become popular on Twitter."

"Haha, I left a message below." Yoan Lu also smiled.

Later, Patrick Guillo hit the nail on the head and said: "Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Golden Boot is not the key at all. The most important thing for Mendes is to take the opportunity to hype and use it to expand Wang's reputation in European football. He is indeed a European super agent."

After chatting, the two put the topic back on the game.

-

In the end, neither Montpellier nor Paris Saint-Germain, who started the game at the same time, won the game, but compared to Montpellier, which did not score a point, Paris Saint-Germain, which took away a point in the away game, is obviously better.

Montpellier lost to Lorient 1:2 in the away game. Bedimo had an own goal first, and Campbell then helped Lorient expand its lead. It was not until the end of the game that Giroud's goal prevented Montpellier from being given a zero seal by Lorient, which was on the edge of the relegation zone.

For Giroud, it is a good thing that he scored a goal, but it is a pity that the team lost and failed to continue to widen the points gap with Paris Saint-Germain behind in the standings, so his mood is not much better.

Montpellier not only failed to widen the gap, but also narrowed the gap. After Paris Saint-Germain drew 1:1 away with Auxerre, the team’s point gap with the league leader Montpellier narrowed to two points, making the championship initiative regained a little bit.

So far, after 32 rounds of the league, Montpellier ranks first with 66 points, followed by Paris Saint-Germain with 64 points, and then Lille, which has 59 points after winning this round of the league but has basically declared that it has missed the championship. After the defending champion, Lyon and Toulouse have 53 points.
