Tuesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain was held to a draw by Newcastle at the Parc des Princes (1-1) as part of the 5th day of the Champions League. Authors of a good start, the Parisians were punished by Alexander Isak before pushing in the second half to snatch a valuable point from the draw, thanks to Kylian Mbappé from the penalty spot. In the meantime, Luis Enrique’s men, largely dominant during the second act, had the opportunities to get back into the game, like Bradley Barcola.
Entering shortly after the hour mark, the former Lyonnais created several clear chances (65th, 75th, 90th+1, 90th+9) but constantly faltered in the final gesture. A lack of lucidity and success which caused the exasperation of Daniel Riolo on the antennas of RMC Sport. “We’re talking about the Champions League, he can’t behave like he did! He’s at Youth League level! He manages to create chances, he is all alone in front of goal but he is not likely to score! Barcola he eats five, they are bigger than us combined”indicated the sports consultant.
