On the lawn of Princes Parkthe
PSG passed through all the states this Wednesday evening. Dominant in the first half, the capital club was denied a goal at the very end of the first half for a minimal offside of
Nuno Mendes. Returning from the locker room, the Parisians were surprised twice in three minutes (50th and 53rd). Despite a blow to the head, Luis Enrique’s players will not give up and reduce the score throughOusmane Dembélé, entered at the break, with superb work from Bradley Barcola. The latter, who seemed reluctant to strike during the first act, did what makes his strength on the Portuguese international’s goal. He will also shake the nets following a magnificent strike from
Désiré Doué who crashed on the bar which he volleyed back to equalize.

Joao Neves on fire
Third scorer of the match, João Neves certainly had his best match since his arrival at PSG. All over the field, he recovered countless balls, projected himself and did not hesitate to try his luck. Small in size (1m75), the Portuguese international propelled the ball with his head on a magnificent pass from Vitinha. Most of the Parisians shone during this meeting, even if
Lee Kang-in appeared to be a degree worse than his teammates, with him being substituted at half-time. If
Nuno Mendes shone again offensively, the Portuguese international was more capable of improvement defensively, as in the action of the first goal of Manchester
City where it is too easily passed by
Kanji.
