The 4-3-3 with very defensive intentions of Thomas Tuchel suffered in the face of the incessant pressing of the players of RB Leipzig.
PSG have suffered a lot and are doing well thanks to the lack of realism of the Germans.
Marquinhos, back in his post as central defender, was the best Parisian.
Navas: 6.
In constant vigilance, the Parisian goalkeeper was decisive in clearing a header from Upamecano (12th) for a corner.
He folds well on a powerful strike from Haidara (39th).
For the rest, he watches the attempts of Forsberg and Poulsen, out of the frame.
Florenzi: 4.
The Italian lost his direct duel with Nkunku, trained in Paris.
Put in difficulty by the left side of Leipzig (with Angeliño), he was very messy.
Few opportunities to shine offensively, he is still present on the action of the penalty.
Marquinhos: 7.
Captain serenity.
Back in central defense for a European match, for the 6th time only in 21 games with Tuchel in C1, the Brazilian flew over his duel with Poulsen.
He against a strike from Säbitzer (12th) and saves his defense in front of Nkunku (69th).
Diallo: 6.
After the nightmare of the second period in Monaco, the left-hander has found a left-axial position which puts him more to his advantage.
A cut below Marquinhos in the duels.
Bakker: 5.
The 20-year-old Dutchman, preferred to Kurzawa, justified the choice of Tuchel.
A serious game, even if all was not perfect defensively.

Herrera: 3.
A definite lack of commitment, an almost total absence of technical precision.
The Basque has often seemed lost to the duplication of Leipzig in the midfield.
In addition, it leaves too much freedom in marking.
Late, he is warned (82nd).
Released for Verratti (83rd), his first appearance since October 2.
The Italian was warned about his first duel (84th).
Danilo: 5.5.
Tenured in the post of sentry, his own, the Portuguese international initially seemed very hesitant.
Before stepping back and greatly helping his central defense, almost filling the role of a third axial player.
Not spectacular but effective until the end.
Paredes: 3.
Lots of "vamos", activity in the duel, often translated by nervousness like his yellow card (41st).
But too little technical mastery and passing forward.
Disappointing.
Di Maria: 4.
As in the first leg, he will seek a penalty for an error by Upamecano (11th), even if he himself seemed surprised by the fault.
Defensively absent, he could not offer anything other than a low ground strike too soft (22nd).
Replaced by Rafinha (64th), useful in controlling the ball.
Neymar: 4.5.
Also quite nervous, the Brazilian gave the victory to PSG on penalty (11th).
Noticeable acceleration on the left side (39th).
Closely followed by the German defenders, he never made a difference.
Sarabia makes up for him (90th).
Mbappé: 4.
Too little served by his circles, he never found sufficient space to express his speed.
An acrobatic gesture (15th) and a recovery (58th) above the frame.
Not a great match for the world champion replaced by Kean (90th).
