Thomas Tuchel had decided to amputate the two Argentinian members (Icardi and Di Maria) from his offensive quartet and to perform a large rotation. Mission successful, even if, in the game, his team fished.
Navas: 6. Holder surprise while Sergio Rico had played all the matches of cups, he was very solicited by his defense. The Costa Rican remained vigilant on this degraded lawn.
Miller: 5. The Belgian was spared for his return as a holder after two games of absence. Especially in the first period, where the game leaned a lot to the right. Offensive presence but little efficiency.
Marquinhos: 7. Captain in the absence of Thiago Silva, at rest, the Brazilian has fulfilled his role as leader. With a head stung on a corner from Neymar, he scored his second goal of the season (9th). Applied defensively. Released after an alert to the right adductor (69th), he was replaced by Kouassi, last scorer of the evening, at close range (79th).
Kimpembe: 6.5. Vigilant on the balloons in depth, the left-handed was sure of his strength. He covered the mistakes of his circles in the first period.
Diallo: 4.5. Aligned as left back, the former Dortmund applied in his defensive position, behind Neymar. Otherwise, he was reprimanded by his coach after a missed pass (49th). A very neutral service.

Draxler: 3. The German was to take on the role of Di Maria, according to Tuchel. It's missed. Warned for excess aggressiveness (38th) and replaced at half time by Herrera (score: 4.5), who played as a right winger without shining.
Verratti: 5.5. A failed first act: too often on the ground, with missed passes and a dangerous risk-taking (43rd). A second better felt during which the Italian made better offensive choices.
Paredes: 4. Aggressive at recovery, the Argentinian gradually disappeared from the encounter. Not confirming the progress seen in December. Even if his volley (79th) brings the third goal.
Neymar: 6.5. Designated as a shooter on set pieces to replace Di Maria, on the bench, the Brazilian was decisive on the three Parisian goals, on corner (9th), on indirect free kick (31st) and again on corner (78th). A performance offset by a lack of offensive influence and questionable choices.
Sarabia: 4. Annoyed by a small bridge, he told Doumbia. A gesture of frustration which symbolizes a missed match, in an unusual position (striker). Replaced to the left in the last twenty minutes, the Spaniard almost scored (82nd) with a stung ball.
Mbappé: 4. His simulation in the area (13th) after too long a control was not the best idea. Neither his goal of the hand (90th), obviously refused. The world champion was not very comfortable on the lawn of Auguste-Delaune, to the point of changing his crampons (27th). Well targeted by Abdelhamid, he could not find the opening in the defense of Reims.
