PSG logically won the champions trophy this Wednesday by beating Toulouse (2-0).
Everything came together for PSG to win its 12th this Wednesdaye champions trophy. Performing at home and facing a limited Toulouse team, the French champion had no difficulty in upholding his rank.
PSG quickly killed the suspense
Luis Enrique’s team won 2 to 0. Two goals scored in the first half. And we didn’t have to wait too long to see the locals break away from the brand. From the 3e minute, the difference has been made. Lee Kang-In put his team on the right track, with a perfect flat foot following a back serve from Ousmane Dembélé.
Shortly after the half-hour mark, Paris experienced an air gap. Toulouse could have benefited from it. For this, Gianluigi Donnarumma would have had to not have had a great day. However, the last Italian rampart signed a major judgment on the only intervention he had to make during this part. At 38ehe diverted a point-blank attempt from Dallinga onto the post.
Mbappé top scorer in PSG history at Parc des Princes.
Mbappé makes the powder speak
For the TFC, this golden opportunity did not present itself again. The Violets then lost all hope of coming back to score by conceding a second goal just before half-time. And who other than Kylian Mbappé to crucify them for good? Discreet until then, the Bondynois provided the break in a solo action. After a run down the left side, he crossed into the middle, eliminated two defenders before finishing with an impeccable shot. Out of reach of Leftovers.
In the second half, Paris was content to manage its lead. Even if they slowed down, the Ile-de-France residents could have added to the bill. At 56e minute, a distant free kick from Achraf Hakimi ended on the post.
Beraldo was able to make his debut
The end of the match, devoid of any suspense, allowed Luis Enrique to bring in his latest recruit Lucas Beraldo. The young Brazilian was included for the final quarter of an hour. Alongside his compatriot Marquinhos, he showed great promise for the future.
With this victory, Paris has launched its new year well. It will now be necessary to confirm over time and without Achraf Hakimi and Lee Kang-In, who will play continental tournaments with their respective selections.
