LILLE goalkeeper, Vincent Enyeama was left disappointed after his side lost 2-1 to 10 men Paris Saint-Germain in the final of the French League Cup on Saturday, no thanks to Angel di Maria winner.
Sportsbiz247 reports that French champion PSG can repeat the treble by beating bitter rival Marseille in the French Cup final on May 21.
PSG led in the 40th minute despite suspicions of offside surrounding Javier Pastore's strike but Djibril Sidibe's free-kick levelled matters early in the second period.
The Laurent Blanc side's task became tougher when Adrien Rabiot collected his second yellow card with 20 minutes remaining, but Di Maria capitalised on an erratic piece of judgement from Lille goalkeeper Victor Enyeama to guide the ball home from 30 yards.
The Nigerian goalkeeper however showed appreciation to the fans for their support throughout the encounter.
"Very disappointed with the result of the game tonight but I want to say thank you to God and thank you to our amazing supporters. The support was massive. Proud to be a Lillios," Enyeama said after the game via his official Instagram page vinny2908.
Also in his postmatch reaction, Lille coach, Frédéric Antonetti said his players were able give a good account of themselves against the 'best team in France'.
"The satisfaction for us is to have matched up to the best team in France and one of the best in Europe. We started very badly, we were frozen for the first 20 minutes, and I think that is just a question of habit. My biggest regret is that we don't often play games like this in France.
"You don't get 150 chances in this kind of game. We knew PSG were stronger, and would monopolise possession. Of the players who started the game, five had very little experience. This kind of match helps them grow."
