Dijon saw the funny side of Adrien Rabiot's comments after the Paris Saint-Germain midfielder lamented his team's loss to Real Madrid by highlighting their eight-goal rout of the French club.
Ligue 1 giants PSG took to the Santiago Bernabeu with great hope but left the Spanish capital 3-1 losers in the opening leg of their last-16 tie against the Champions League holders on Wednesday.
Rabiot, who opened the scoring in the 33rd minute before Cristiano Ronaldo's double inspired a comeback, was particularly scathing of the collapse, telling beIN SPORTS: "It's great to put eight goals past Dijon, but it is in these matches that you have to make it count."
On a tout fait pour mettre le en confiance avant le .... Et voilà comment ils nous remercient ! Bon du coup on a quand même parlé du en soirée ! February 14, 2018
And Dijon responded to Rabiot via Twitter post-match, writing: "We did everything to give PSG confidence before Real Madrid... And this is how they thank us!"
PSG – 12 points clear in the league – welcome Madrid to Parc des Princes on March 6 as they look to reach the quarter-finals.
