PSG has held its rank. Three months after its incredible coronation against Inter Milan, PSG was effective in the defense of its title with a 4-0 success against Atalanta Bergame. And the Parisians set the tone from the first minutes of the meeting …
As a good captain, Marquinhos opened the scoring after only three minutes of play. The start of the meeting was one -way, the men of Luis Enrique multiplying the big opportunities, but it is ultimately in a weak time that the champions of France were going to double the bet on a personal feat of Khvicha Kvaratskhelia.
In the process, PSG was going to benefit from a golden opportunity to take shelter permanently thanks to a penalty following a big fault of Marquinhos far from the ball. Ousmane Dembélé on the side, it was Bradley Barcola who was offered to triple the bet.
A real black series for PSG attackers
Las, the former Lyonnais completely missed his shot, so much so that Marco Carnesecchi, who left on the right side, could afford the luxury of blocking the ball. This failure has certainly not lent to consequences, Nuno Mendes then Gonçalo Ramos digging a little more the gap in the second period, but confirmed the difficulties of the Parisians in the exercise.
Outside session of penalties, this penalty is indeed the fourth failed by the champions of France on their last eight attempts. Before Bradley Barcola, Vitinha (against Liverpool in the semi-final return of the Champions League), Gonçalo Ramos (against Auxerre during the 32nd day of Ligue 1) then more recently Ousmane Dembélé (against Angers on the occasion of the 2nd day of Ligue 1) have all missed a penalty in recent months.
