Angers-PSG (0-1): the ratings of Parisian players

Isolated in Paris because of Covid, Mauricio Pochettino did not play the cautious.

After three outings in 4-3-3, the Argentinian coach decided to launch his team in 4-2-3-1, supposed to show off his offensive quartet Di Maria - Neymar - Mbappé - Kean.

A first (since October 28) not really successful since the light came from Kurzawa and the defense.

Navas: 7.5.

The Costa Rican goalkeeper barely had time to warm up that he already had to unfold to release the curled shot of Capelle (2nd).

Vigilant on the cross strike of Diony (36th), he especially saves the furniture on a Diony's head at close range (52nd).

Florenzi: 6

.

Scorer in the first leg, the Italian side started by playing lower than usual.

His cross strike of the first period, one of the only PSG, uninhibited him.

Upon returning from the locker room, his deflected center allows Paris to open the brand.

Marquinhos: 6.

Caught cold, the Brazilian captain took ten minutes to find his bearings.

Too short to prevent Pereira-Lage from placing his head (7th), he then took care.

Diallo: 6.5.

Third game in a row alongside Marquinhos, the Franco-Senegalese is in great shape.

Seriously, he cuts the center of Capelle, ensures in his anticipations.

Reassuring.

Kurzawa: 6.5

.

Hardly requested in the first period, the left side stood out after returning from the locker room.

After deflecting a dangerous shot from Bahoken in his area, he settled the situation by opening the scoring with a volley from the outside of the left foot (70th).

Injured, he is replaced by Kimpembe (87th).

Paredes: 6.5.

The Argentinian is in good shape.

Sometimes he gives the impression of walking.

But his positive aggressiveness, his foot or his shoulder dragging and especially his alternation of short passes, long passes offers solutions.

It is he who triggers the action of the goal.

Verratti: 6.

Return to normal for the Italian who has regained his position as midfielder.

His agreement with Paredes has often turned Angers circles around.

If he was slow to play forward, his retention of the ball is valuable.

Di Maria: 3.5.

He had to dezone to get noticed, a little, in the first period.

He wakes up in the second half.

His strike in the axis or his well wound center force Bernardoni to relax.

But very far from his level.

Replaced by Herrera (80th).

Neymar: 4.

The Brazilian has returned to his favorite position.

Not his level.

At the baton, he started with a high and dynamic pressing.

Despite some opening attempts, especially for Mbappé, he did not bring what is expected of him.

Kean: 3.

Difficult game for the Italian.

Invisible in the first period in the axis, he then takes the left side.

Without more relief.

Replaced by Icardi (69th) more mobile.

Mbappé: 3.5.

He still hasn't scored in 2021. It's hard to position himself and make defensive efforts.

He does not frame his pricked ball against Bernardoni (22nd), his only success in the first period.

Repositioned in the axis before the rest, he makes better movements, heels for Kean (53rd), and triggers the first Parisian strike on target (55th).

Replaced by Sarabia (69th).
