After regaining the crown and winning the tenth championship in its history, Paris Saint-Germain kicked off the 35th round of the French league with a 3-3 away win against Strasbourg tonight (Friday). The sixth-ranked dropped an advantage, but scored an important point in the fight to get a ticket to the Champions League.
From the start it could be seen that the host had something to play for as opposed to a team from the French capital, with Kevin Gameiro giving Strasbourg the lead before three minutes of play were completed. However, later on began the show of Killian Ambape, who once again reminded the Parisians of the magnitude of the loss they would expect if he left for Real Madrid this summer, as is likely to happen.
Neymar cooked for Ambape who scored the equalizer in the 28th minute, the striker cooked for Ashraf Hakimi who completed a makeover in the 64th minute and four minutes later Ambape already completed a pair that set 1: 3. Strasbourg did not give up and managed to return to the game with a shrinking goal by Avivo Diallo in the 75th minute, when Anthony Cassy set up a dramatic equalizer in the 91st minute.
So while reports suggest that Ambepa will move to Spain, coach Mauricio Pochettino, who was also mentioned as expected to leave Paris Saint-Germain, said yesterday before the game against Strasbourg: “The chance that Ambape and I will stay? 100%. As for Ambape, that’s how I am. I feel, but maybe also because I can not want anything else to happen. “
Next week, in parallel with the 36th round, the French Cup final will be held between Nice and Nantes.
