PSG-Monaco: the ratings of Parisian players

For the big poster of the 20th day and when he had for the first time the season of his entire group, Thomas Tuchel had chosen to put his typical team, with the Fantastic Four, Verratti and Gueye in the middle, and Marquinhos and Thiago Silva in central defense.

Navas: 6.5. His poorly controlled outing on Ben Yedder could have cost a penalty or even an expulsion (8th) if Mr. Gautier had not left an advantage that benefited Gelson Martins (1-1). More inspired then, the goalkeeper wins his duel with Baldé (22nd) then folds to take out the coiled shot of Golovin (37th). Saved on his pole on a Glik's head (31st). He saved the match by slamming a header from Slimani (87th).

Meunier: 5. The Monegasque game has often leaned on its side where it has sometimes been left to its own devices. He went up to speed and sent a perfect center for Mbappé (19th).

Marquinhos: 3.5. Often in difficulty against Ben Yedder, especially when he misses his interception which forces Navas to save in front of Baldé (22nd). It is also too static on the first Monaco goal (1-1, 7th). He had more impact after the break but involuntarily diverted the pass from Gelson Martins who called Slimani into play and allowed Monaco to equalize (3-3, 72nd). A head above (85th)

Thiago Silva: 4.5. For his first game of the year, the captain sometimes lacked a little energy and found himself too far from his vis-à-vis. He was not helped by Bernat but failed to bring serenity to the defensive block.

Bernat: 3.5. Too static on the first goal where he lets Ben Yedder slip (1-1, 7th), he is eliminated on the feint of hitting the French international (1-2, 13th). Unusual technical errors.

Verratti: 7. Intensive work on losing the ball allowed him to be particularly effective in recovery. He also guided the game a lot and found Neymar with a long, precise opening (1-0, 3rd). Taken by Gelson Martins on the goal of Slimani (3-3, 72nd). Replaced by Paredes (80th).

Gueye: 7. Too easily eliminated by Golovin on Monaco's second goal (13th), the Senegalese kept chasing his opponents and recovered many balls.

Di Maria: 4. It was the striker who defended the most, but it was insufficient. Despite some good directions, the Argentinian did not weigh enough on the debates. Replaced by Sarabia (80th)

Neymar: 7.5. His sequence in full stroke, control of the chest and strike from the left, marked the start of his gala evening (1-0, 3rd). He is behind the goal against his side of Ballo-Touré who diverted his attempt (2-2, 24th) before scoring a penalty (3-2, 41st). Lecomte stopped his attempt on a free kick (15th) and his strike from 15 m (54th). He sounded the charge at the end of the match. Without success.

Mbappé: 5.5. He created breaches but never found the frame (21st, 45th + 1, 60th, 76th, 90th + 4). It causes the fault of Gelson Martins on the penalty (40th). A big fright in the 26th when he stayed on the ground for a long time holding his left knee.

Icardi: 4. The Argentine was weaned from the ball (only 12 touchdowns). Apart from an attempt to lob above (19), he had no chances. He was much more involved in the defensive withdrawal after the break. Replaced by Cavani (86th) who came up against Lecomte (90th + 5).
