PSG easily won against Racing Club de Strasbourg (4-2) thanks in particular to Barcola, scorer and passer. The Parisians, with a better attack, regain the lead of the championship tied on points with Monaco.
Paris Saint-Germain rediscovers the taste of victory. After a defeat in the Champions League against Arsenal, then a draw (1-1) conceded in Nice, Paris this time won on home turf 4-2 against Strasbourg. An important victory to restart the dynamic, even if everything was not perfect at the Parc des Princes this Saturday evening. It was Strasbourg who started the match in the dominant position. Without any real serious opportunity, the Alsatian club had a lot of difficulty creating dangerous actions, in particular thanks to an attentive Donnarumma. More confident, PSG then opened the scoring with Senny Mayulu’s first goal, perfectly served by Bradley Barcola (18th, 1-0). Paris then pushed to try to take cover before the break, without success.
Barcola untenable
Luis Enrique’s team came back with a knife between their teeth after returning from the locker room. Marco Asensio then took advantage of the momentum to score from close range directly after the break (47th, 2-0). Despite the break, Strasbourg reacted ten minutes later with magnificent control and a perfect strike from Sekou Mara (58th, 2-1). Despite the reduction in the score, Paris left no room for its opponent, regaining a two-goal lead thanks to a superb shot from Barcola a few minutes later (66th, 3-1). In place, the players from the capital gave their opponents no respite, driving the point home thanks to Kang-In Lee, perfectly served by Neves (90th, 4-1). The reduction in Daouda Diong’s score at the very end of the game (90+3rd, 4-2) will not change anything. Strasbourg will never have managed to reverse the score. Final victory 4-2 for PSG which regains its leadership position, after Monaco’s draw (0-0) against Lille on Friday evening.
