This Sunday, Paris Saint-Germain gave a sad farewell to its great star, Kylian Mbappéwho scored a goal and won the affection of the stands but could not avoid a 1-3 defeat against Toulouse, between the poor play of his team and the silence of the club towards his departure.
The defeat put an end to a season in Paris in which, with the arrival of Luis Enrique and multiple signings last summer, PSG has navigated the domestic competition comfortably but he has once again been left out of European glory.
Thinking about the Cup final on the 25thLuis Enrique kept his word and rested many of his starters, to fill the initial team with players who have had few minutes this season.
PSG opened the scoring early (minute 10), and none other than Mbappé, to the delirium of the standsbut the joy had to be briefly postponed until a VAR check.
Toulouse did not give up and Dallinga They tied it five minutes later, in a play that showed the lack of performance of the Parisian defense today, all made up of substitutes. Very shortly after, in the 18th minute, Tenas responded with an excellent save to Aboukhlal’s shot.
And, emboldened by their goal and faced with the confusion of the team of circumstances lined up by PSGthe current French Cup champions took control of the match.
In the last part of the first half, PSG recovered the ballbut without creating much danger to the men led by Barcelona’s Carles Martínez.
The second half began without a clear dominator, although PSG had the first clear chances, with shots from Asensio, Mbappé and Lee that narrowly missed.
But it was Toulouse that took the lead with an excellent parabola shot from Gboho. The goal rewarded a good stretch by the visiting team, which came dangerously close thanks to a dynamic combinative game.
The introduction of Dembele for Lee, just before the violets’ second goal, provided some spectacular overflow. Luis Enrique brought in Gonçalo Ramos and Hakimi in search of gunpowder to at least not lose in PSG’s last game at their stadium this season.
But it was all in vain. The Parisian attack lacked bite in the last phase of the match, while the Toulouse counters continued to create danger.
