The controversy has therefore still not finished spilling ink. Several months ago, following PSG’s victory in Nantes in Ligue 1, Christophe Galtier had joked, with a humor that has not passed, on the movements of the capital club and explaining that he was looking if he was possible to “move by sand yacht”. A response that had caused quite an uproar, while the Parisians had flown for a short distance. On the sidelines of the return match between the Red and Blue and the Canaries, at the Parc des Princes on Saturday (9 p.m.), Antoine Kombouaré, concerned regarding the ecological cause, has in any case clarified things regarding the means of transport for his men. In his own way, using strong words and delivering a nice tackle as he knows how to place them.
« I did not wait for people to come with petitions to put pressure. I decided that we were going to go by train to Paris. We are super happy to go there by train, it will be 2 hours (travel). We will return by bus. 3h30 by bus, it never killed people, first explained the Kanak at a press conference this Friday, before continuing. It always annoys me when guys talk to me regarding ecology. I’m concerned, I’m from New Caledonia in the Pacific. We have been talking for a while regarding global warming and rising sea levels. I’ve always been concerned with that. Over there, for the seabed, the Chinese come with their boats and screw everything up. It pisses me off. So I don’t need people to talk to me regarding the climate. I know it. I’ve always done that. When I was PSG coach, we traveled to Lyon by train. I was already doing it in my previous clubs. You can’t do it when you play every three days, but there we don’t have a European Cup match. We will come back by bus, everything is fine. I didn’t wait for people to put pressure on me. At home, my family is affected by this, lots of islands will disappear. Kombouaré is not joking.
