Paris Still without superstar Lionel Messi, Paris Saint-Germain have maintained a clean slate in Ligue 1. The star group, in which Neymar and Sergio Ramos were not, celebrated their third victory in their third match with a score of 4-2 (2-1) at the Brest Arena, thus maintaining the lead in the tournament.
Ander Herrera (23rd), Kylian Mbappe (36th), Idrissa Gui (73rd) and substitute Angel Di Maria (90 + 1) scored the goals of the cup winner. Subsequent goals by Frank Honorat (42) and Steve Mooney (85) kept the match open at times.
As in the first matches, Thilo Kehrer was at the center of defense from the start. 2014 world champion Julian Draxler came in the 72nd minute to European champion Marco Verratti.
Messi coach Mauricio Pochettino, who moved to the French capital after 21 years with Spanish club Barcelona, said that he would be a serious alternative to Paris Saint-Germain at the end of August. Until then, it must be introduced “step by step” and “made appropriate for his debut”.
