The Parisian striker, Kylian Mbappé, was rather uplifted after PSG’s draw against Newcastle (1-1).
While he had the opportunity to validate his ticket for the round of 16 of the Champions League by winning, PSG settled for a draw against Newcastle this Tuesday (1-1). And the result could have been even more disappointing if not for the penalty converted by Kylian Mbappé in stoppage time.
Mbappé rails against Parisian shortcomings
After the game, the Parisian hero appeared in front of journalists to share his reaction. For him, there was nothing to jump to the ceiling after this draw. “It’s frustrating because we dominate from start to finish. They have nothing. But we should have finished our actions better, he thundered at the microphone of Canal+. It’s not the structure or the organization, it’s us (the ones at fault, editor’s note). We need to be more diligent. We have to kill and win the match more broadly.”
Mbappé was right to point out the lack of realism among his people. He and his teammates had 31 shots during this game, including 7 on target, but they only made the difference on a penalty that fell from the sky in the 96the.

Paris is master of its destiny before the last day. In two weeks, the capital team can even qualify by losing. For Mbappé, however, this is not a reason to go there casually. ” Relieved ? There is nothing to be relieved about, you have to stay under pressure. There is a match to be won. It’s up to us to go to Dortmund with ambition and the certainty of being able to win. You will have to play with personality. In idea, we were there today. But you have to try to work in front of goal. If we play like that, and we are more skillful, things will go well in Dortmund.”
