Half time:
Paris leads 2-0 at the break of its first match of the Champions League 2022-2023 against Juventus of Turin and it is a logical advance. Without setting a very steady pace, Christophe Galtier’s players showed their technical superiority and were able to accelerate to hurt. Kylian Mbappé’s two goals are superb collectively and in the finish with two decisive one-twos with Neymar on the first goal and with Hakimi on the second. Paris masters its subject and Juve lacks creativity for the moment.
45+3 min. :
The free kick barely played, Anthony Taylor whistles the break. Paris leads logically 2-0.
45+2 mins. – Yellow card for Miretti:
For this lack of frustration, Miretti receives a logical administrative sanction. The Brazilian appears to be hit in the ankle.
45+1 min. :
PSG confiscated the ball from Juve for 2 minutes until Miretti made a nervous foul on Neymar around 40m.
43 min. :
The corner is cleared from the head by the Italian defense towards Verratti at 18m. The Parisian 6 tries, once is not custom, the volley and misses completely. It was a difficult move with a lifeless ball.
42 min. :
Mbappé combines left side with Messi and takes Cuadrado speed. His center back gets a corner kick.
41 min. :
Good defense this time from Vitinha at the feet of Rabiot.
39 min. :
PSG control possession at 58% after 38 minutes of play.
37 min. :
Neymar remains on the ground in the area after an attempt full of dribbling and favorable counters. Cuadrado certainly hampered the Brazilian but he did not make a mistake. The game will resume.
35 min. :
Hakimi intercepts a ball from Miretti to counter with Mbappé on the right side. We go back from behind with Messi placed in the axis but who prefers to transmit to Vitinha better placed to strike. The shot is missed thanks to the defense coming out on the Portuguese. Neymar had also asked for the ball in depth but Messi had not seen the call.
34 min. :
Galtier’s PSG have regained possession and are taking their time to find the fault.
31 min. :
Juventus players spin the ball as if to reassure themselves but it lacks speed to cause imbalances. Free kick for Turin 40m from Donnarumma’s goal on the right. Cuadrado’s long cross finds Bremer’s distant header but it’s without concern for the gloves of the European champion goalkeeper.
29 min. :
Neymar does not hesitate to defend and sometimes clumsily like here on Vlahović in the central circle. The two players clap hands and Juve get a set piece.
27 min. – Carton jaune for Bremer Silva Nascimento:
Bremer also receives a logical card for his fault. Paredes is doing well. Free kick for PSG in the axis 35 m from Perin’s goals.
27 mins. – Yellow card for Ramos:
Sergio Ramos is warned for this too vehement reaction.
26 min. :
Scuffle on the lawn after a foul from Bremer well behind Mbappé. Tempers flared with Paredes and Sergio Ramos, who were still teammates a week ago.
22 mins. – Goal for Paris SG:
Mbappé’s classy double! This time it came from the right for the PSG attack with this one-two between Kylian Mbappé and Achraf Hakimi. The Moroccan found the Frenchman in one touch to eliminate the defense before the center-forward volleyed victoriously for the 2-0.
19 min. – Occasion pour Juventus Turin:
Big save from Donnarumma on a strong header from Milik! The Pole had been perfectly found between the penalty spot and the 6 meters by Cuadrado. The ball then returned to Vlahović who tried to shoot in a heel strike not to waste time but it was Sergio Ramos who cleared as best he could. Big scare in the PSG camps with the first two shots from the Bianconeri. In slow motion, Milik looked slightly offside.
19 min. :
Verratti does not let Vlahović breathe on the few balls that the Serb touches. The Italian’s tackles are doing a good job so far.
18 min. :
Finally a phase of possession for Turin which manages to find Cuadrado in the area on the right side. The Colombian misses his long pass to change wing and pushes back his formation.
16 min. :
This time it’s Lionel Messi who tries to touch Mbappé with a silky ladle in the area but the Parisian number 7 had a completely different client in the air in the person of Bonucci.
14 min. :
Paredes remembers the good memories of his former teammates with an early foul on a start from Mbappé who went to get Messi in the middle.
13 min. :
Possession remains essentially Parisian with Neymar touching a significant number of balls.
11 min. :
The Old Lady tries to regain possession a little by returning to the high block. The low block has, it is true, quickly shown its limits.
09 mins. – Opportunity for Paris SG:
This time it’s Marquinhos who alerts Mbappé in the center and from afar with a precise ball. Not offside, Mbappé misses the volley, complicated with a ball that comes from behind.
08 min. :
Paris did not drag and opened the scoring on its first shot. PSG have the ball more than 83% of the time at the start of the game.
05 mins. – Goal for Paris SG:
What a goal from Mbappé! Paris opens the scoring brilliantly. On a well-felt occasion when Neymar came on the left for the low ball, he came up and exchanged with Vitinha before combining with Kylian Mbappé for a magical one-two. The Brazilian put away Mbappé with a perfect ladle allowing the Frenchman to score with a volley, leaving no chance for Perin.
04 min. :
This time the Parisians are settled in the Juventus camp and Allegri’s players are very low with two well-stocked lines.
04 min. :
Juve reacted with a long cross from the right for the far post and Milik’s header but Donnarumma intervened in the air.
03 min. :
The first move for PSG with Neymar finding Mendes on the left in the box for a tight, uncontrolled cross. It is pushed back for a corner by Bonucci.
02 min. :
First indications, the Italians are trying to press the Parisians high and therefore not to wait for them in front of the Perin area.
01 min. :
Juve kicks off the meeting with Vlahović in the pass!
00 min. :
The players make their entrance on the lawn of the Park, the atmosphere is beautiful and the smoke bombs are out in the kops. A small fine is to be expected.
00 min. :
The weather is pretty good tonight in Paris, 24° and it shouldn’t rain during the game.
00 min. :
Juve side, no surprise either according to the absentees already announced. Perin still replaces Szczęsny in goal. Three-man defense ahead of him with Captain Bonucci, Danilo and Bremer. Kostic and Cuadrado will be the counterparts of Mendes and Hakimi. The middle will be hardworking with a Paredes, Rabiot, Miretti trident. In front we find the new duo: Vlahović – Milik.
00 min. :
The compositions have fallen and no surprise for the 11 aligned by Christophe Galtier, it is the 11 that has emerged since the start of the season and the return of Kylian Mbappé from suspension. Donnarumma is in the cage in front of the three-man defense consisting of captain Marquinhos surrounded by Sergio Ramos and Kimpembe. Mendes and Hakimi are the pistons for the sides. In the middle, the Verratti – Vitinha pair is there since the Portuguese has recovered from his knee alert. The magic trio is present for its first big night of the season with Messi placed behind Neymar and Mbappé.
00 min. :
In the early afternoon it was also the kick-off of the Youth League which opposes the U19 teams of the Champion’s League. The young Parisians won 5-3 against Juve. Zoumana Camara’s team led 5-1 at the break.
00 min. :
The last confrontation between the two clubs, excluding friendly matches, dates back to January 1997 for the European Super Cup between the winners of the C1 and C2. Paris raised its European Cup Winners’ Cup a few months earlier. PSG took the frost at the Parc (-5°) with a historic defeat (6-1) against Zidane, Del Piero, Deschamps and others. The return will be barely better with a 3-1 loss in Italy. Paris may have two opponents tonight, Juve and the weight of history.
00 min. :
In 8 confrontations, PSG have never beaten Juventus in European cups. With 6 defeats and 2 draws, the Parisian club faces its pet peeve of the continental scene.

00 min. :
The referee of the meeting is English, it is Anthony Taylor from Manchester (43 years old). He will be assisted by Gary Beswick and Adam Nunn.
