Ajaccio-PSG (0-3): Soler walks in the shadows

We didn’t necessarily expect it from the start. But Neymar suspended, it was Carlos Soler (25) who took the opportunity to attack the game this Friday evening in Ajaccio in an unexpected position, higher, almost in 9 and a half, with Lionel Messi on his right, but often refocused, and Kylian Mbappé eccentric to the left in his preferential role. Christophe Galtier had kept the suspense until the end. In reality he had prepared his move well by working on this idea on Wednesday in training. No Hugo Ekitike or Pablo Sarabia, so it was the more creative profile of the former Valencia player that tipped the scales. Soler often stalled. He had to play against nature as a fixation point to free up the spaces. He also moved, especially during the first half hour when the referee would have been well advised to sanction certain charges.
