Lens object to moving PSG showdownAFP, SANT FELIU DE GUIXOLS, SpainFrench Ineos rider Dorian Godon on Monday won the first stage of the Tour of Catalonia as Belgian Remco Evenepoel came second in a photo finish and Tom Pidcock was third. The 105th edition of the seven-day tour is packed with stars, with Jonas Vingegaard favorite to win after his masterclass at Paris-Nice. Jonathan Gradit of RC Lens, bottom, tackles Paris Saint-Germain’s Ibrahim Mbaye, center, in their Ligue 1 match at the Parc des Princes in Paris on Sept. 14 last year. “I did my studies in Girona and live there now, and often said I’d win a stage like this one day,” the newly-signed Ineos rider said. “It would have been better to wait a bit, the last 50m seemed to last an hour,” he said after holding off a counterattack from Evenepoel.
