🎥 Red card on matchday 1! Mic'd-up audio debuts in Ligue 1 🎙️
A first in Ligue 1!
Strasbourg clearly had a difficult evening on the opening matchday of the 2026/27 Ligue 1 season.
Already trailing 1-0 after Amine Gouiri opened the scoring for OM, Strasbourg were reduced to 10 men after a nasty challenge by Samir El Mourabet on Pierre-Émile Højbjerg.

This red card, flagged by VAR, also marked the debut of a new feature in Ligue 1. To announce his decision, Ruddy Buquet used the Stade Vélodrome's sound system to explain it to the fans and TV viewers.
The same situation happened again a few minutes later when the match referee had to announce the penalty that made it 2-0, converted by Amine Gouiri.
In the end, Strasbourg suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat, completely undone by that red card.
So, do you approve of this innovation?
