3rd day and new disappointment for PSG in this Champions League. Despite a host of chances, the capital club paid dearly for their 15-minute slump before the break. PSV took the opportunity to open the scoring through Noa Lang, forcing the Parisians to chase the score. Dembélé and Barcola nevertheless had very big scoring situations in the first period, before seeing Hakimi equalize on the hour mark. The honor and the draw (1-1) are safe but Paris misses the victory and is still looking for its reference match in this C1.

I think realism is the one most important thing that was missing tonightrecognizes Marquinhos on Canal Plus. We didn’t have the chances against Arsenal, but tonight, it was the finishing that was lacking. We had chances at the start and end of the match, but we didn’t scoreadds the captain, looking like a bad evening. They immediately made it happen. That changes the whole story tonight. A draw is important, but we didn’t get three points today.»

Marquinhos: “We even scored more goals than last year when we had a big nine»

It’s a bit of a weird matchagrees Achraf Hakimi, author of the equalizing goal. We did everything to win. We created a lot of chances but that’s why we didn’t win tonight. We didn’t make the most of our chances.» Dembélé was particularly clumsy, as is often the case, by hitting the bar just wide, while Barcola did not have the same success as in Ligue 1. And then there was this last save from Benitez on his line on this head of Marquinhos. The Brazilian does not think that Mbappé, or another attacker, is missing.

If we look at the stats, we have scored quite a few goals at the start of the season. We even have more than last year when we had a big new one. It’s normal for people to focus on that. Our team has changed, our characteristics have changed. It’s important to make this happen. We have great players who have shown that they can score. We work in training, in our heads. We need this tranquility on the surface» calms Marquinhos, followed by Hakimi’s promise. “We could have scored 3 or 4. Sunday it will fit.» Against OM therefore.
