Tuesday evening, Luis Enrique, the PSG coach, declared that he would immediately sign for his team to produce against Atlético the same match as against Girona or PSV. The Asturian technician would perhaps have done better to keep quiet. Because yes, his team signed a performance in the game similar to that of its two previous outings at the Park in this C1 but with an unfavorable result (1-2). While victory was reaching out to him, the French champion bowed to the gong by giving in to an opposing counterattack. This is her second defeat in four matches and she is hardly doing her business with a view to qualifying for the playoffs.
Oblak disgusted them
With only 4 points collected in four matches, Paris can indeed start to worry about its presence in the next round. However, against the Matelassiers, everything started well with a goal scored in the 14the minute of play. After Clément Lenglet lost the ball, Warren Zaire-Emery appeared in the area to deceive the vigilance of Jan Oblak.
The titi, however, was not the only Parisian to surprise the last Slovenian rampart in this meeting. The latter then pulled out all the stops and proved that he was indeed one of the best in his position in the world. During the second act, he notably frustrated Bradley Barcola twice (59e and 64e) before interposing against Marquinhos (74e), Achraf Hakimi (77e) and Lee Kang-In (93rd).
PSG still running out of fuel
Decisive saves, since his team managed to equalize in the meantime. At the 18e minute, on a completely innocuous offensive from Atlético, Nahuel Molina took advantage of a favorable counterattack in the area to shoot Gianluigi Donnarumma. An unexpected equalizer which the visitors then knew how to protect by doing what they do best: defending with courage and self-sacrifice. A draw would have arranged them perfectly, but why settle for the minimum when you can ensure full points. Opportunistic, they exploited their last attack to place a poisonous banderilla through Angel Correa and thus freeze the Parc des Princes.
Paris therefore dominated the debates but in the end it came out greatly frustrated. A feeling of déjà vu in this Champions League for the capital team. As if the European evenings were completely disrupting this Ligue 1 winning machine. If until now, Luis Enrique refused to worry too much about it, now he has no other choice than to ask questions and try to find the solution to relaunch your family before it is too late.
