Real Madrid and PSG Lose Their First Games in the Domestic Leagues

On Friday, Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain suffered their first league defeats of the season. Madrid fell 1-0 to Real Betis, while PSG lost 2-1 at home to Monaco.
Irish striker Troy Parrott scored the decisive goal for Real Betis, handing Madrid its first loss since coach Jose Mourinho returned. Kylian Mbappe saw his injury-time penalty saved by goalkeeper Alvaro Valles.
Reigning European champions PSG took an early lead through Marquinhos in the 31st minute, but Monaco rallied to win with second-half goals from Flavio Nazinho in the 58th and Stanis Idumbo in the 72nd.
Hours before the loss, PSG announced contract extensions for coach Luis Enrique through 2030 and several players, including Joao Neves, Lucas Beraldo, Senny Mayulu, and Willian Pacho through 2031.
Monaco currently leads Ligue 1 as the only team to win its first three games, while PSG entered the match following draws against Rennes and Lille in its opening two fixtures.
