New leaders of group F, the Parisians defeated AC Milan (3-0) this Wednesday, at the Parc des Princes, during the third day of C1.
At the Parc des Princes
Double blow for PSG. With goals from Mbappé, Kolo Muani and Lee, the Rouge et Bleu largely and logically brought down AC Milan (3-0) this Wednesday, in Paris, three weeks after their debacle at Newcastle (4-1). Mapgies who lost to Dortmund at the same time (0-1). Suddenly, it is Luis Enrique’s men, authors of a great performance in front of a Parc des Princes on fire, who take control in Group F of the Champions League.
Parisian domination was evident from the start by strong possession and a high block for PSG, and cards on the Milan side (Thiaw in the 4th, Krunic in the 7th). Sterile domination, however. The Milanese, for their part, gradually lifted their heads above the water, first on set pieces, on the acceleration of Pulisic and especially Leao on the sides. The latter was not far from opening the scoring with this curling shot from the right which licked the frame (26th). The Portuguese has grown a lot since his time in Lille…

Mbappé without pity
However, he still has a way to go before being compared to a certain Mbappé, the latter having “dreamed” in front of the great Milan as a child. As an adult, it’s another story… It was he who made the first Parisian strike of the match, with his foot closed, no problem for Maignan (22nd). A try. After looking for the top corner (30th), the 24-year-old phenomenon, found in motion, for once, mystified Tomori before, again, closing his foot. This time, the masterstroke, Maignan could do nothing about it (1-0, 32nd). Jewel that would allow Paris to breathe easier, while the account was clearly not there until then in this first padlocked period. It would have been a little less so if Kolo Muani had not forgotten Dembélé who arrived launched on his right (43rd). We left it there, after a handful of political messages linked to the conflict in the Middle East in the forum of the Collectif Ultras Paris (1-0 MT).
First period closed? Not the start of the second. Hazardous exit from Donnarumma (47th), goal denied to Dembélé after viewing the images for a foul by Ugarte (48th), Giroud very close to 1-1 and… Kolo Muani for the break (2-0, 52nd). On a quickly played corner, Dembélé alerted the former Parisian titi Maignan, who could only push back on the opportunistic ex-Nantes player.
The perfect move for PSG, who however did not loosen their grip and pushed again with Mbappé, this time thwarted by Maignan (58th). All under the eyes of Deschamps, who must have thought he was at Clairefontaine (9 French people at kick-off). “DD” certainly shouldn’t have missed a bit of the great performance of a 17-year-old kid, Zaire-Emery, who should (very) quickly move from the U23s to the A’s. From the rally next November?
Leao hurts, Lee kills the suspense
Pulisic in any case finally gave the former Milanese Donnarumma the opportunity to warm his gloves (63rd), Leao narrowly missed the target (67th) and tried to lob the Parisian goalkeeper (70th), but this Milanese reaction also had as a result of offering boulevards to the Parisian spiers. Milan pressing and still dangerous (77th, 81st), often with the speed of Leao, which made Marquinhos suffer. Opposite, Mbappé was not far from killing the suspense (82nd). It was Lee who took care of it, on a serve from “WZE” (2nd assist of the day), and with Ramos who intelligently let it pass (3-0, 88th). Feast (3-0 final score). The two teams will meet on November 7 at San Siro. For Parisian confirmation or Milanese revenge?
