PSG's U19s won for the first time this season in the Youth League this Wednesday afternoon, logically dominating Atlético Madrid (4-2). The Sangaré/Mbaye duo blew up the Colchoneros who were trailing 4-0 at the break, including a hat-trick from the first named.
Even more than the pros who challenge Atlético Madrid this evening, the PSG U19s had to win to give themselves a chance to believe in a possible continuation in the competition this Wednesday in the Youth League. David Suarez's players showed the way to their elders with a great victory (4-2), notably thanks to a fiery first period ending with a superb score of 4-0. Atlético certainly messed up a lot but Paris fully deserved its victory.
The composition of PSG: James – Boly (82nd), Tape, El Hannach, Cordier – Khafi (Abo El Nay, 71st), Diaby (Fanne Drame, 82nd), Diyinu Around – Mbaye (Diandaga 93rd), Sangaré, Camera (Ly, 71st). ).
After a balanced start to the match but marked by two huge chances for PSG, the Parisians logically opened the scoring with Sangaré who deceives the goalkeeper with a clever free kick at the edge of the area (1-0, 18th). In the process, it is his friend Ibrahim Mbaye who ignites the Parisian right wing and crosses to the line, again for a Sangaré well placed who doesn't need to be asked (2-0, 23rd).
Atlético is KO standing and Sangaré escapes on the right side on a counter, he enters the area, dribbles past the goalkeeper and is cut down. Obvious penalty that he converts with a sure counterattack (3-0, 34th). While Atlético continues hot situations on the Parisian goal, PSG strikes one last time before the break: the untenable Mbaye escapes again on the right and sends another perfect cross in front of the goal which Camara sends to the bottom (4-0, 45th+2).
Madrid changed three players at half-time and came back very strongly from the locker room, which was quickly reflected on the scoreboard. After several big chances, it's Pan who deceives James with a dry strike from 20m at the near post which surprises the Parisian goalkeeper, in great demand (4-1, 48th). The match will also be crazy for a good half hour, the chances keep coming on both sides and the score could change from 5-1 to 4-2 from one minute to the next. In the end, it was the Madrilenians who scored again through Castillo, on a poorly pushed corner, but it was too late (4-2, 88th).
PSG has a last ball of 5-2 following a last huge acceleration from Mbaye but Madrid also comes close to 4-3. Paris finally wins logically given the volume of opportunities and relaunches itself in the race for qualification with 4 points in 4 matches. See you in Munich in three weeks!
