Icardi again in the light, stratospheric Neymar, but also Di Maria more borrowed: find the Tops and the Flops of this match between Reims and PSG (0-2).
Tops
Icardi, finally scorer
The Argentinian has found the target, he who had not scored in Ligue 1 since February 29.
Clever to conclude from close
, served each time by Mbappé (9th, 62nd), the Argentinian also had other opportunities but was especially distinguished by precise discounts.
Participating more in the game, he blended well into the collective unlike usual.
Neymar irresistible in a freer role
Placed as a left torchbearer in the Parisian 4-3-3, Neymar found himself free enough to express himself on the lawn of Reims.
Always so active, the Brazilian was delighted to place himself in the intervals in order to lead the game of his team.
Distilling a good number of caviars, he came close to a nice goal on a lonely raid that ended with a shot just out of target.
His technical gestures worked wonders throughout the game despite the many faults suffered.
A real recital that he could not, however, materialize with a goal or an assist.
Mbappé, more passer than scorer
As in Nice last Sunday, Kylian Mbappé was in legs.
On the left flank, the French international has multiplied the sharp races and made suffer Foket, the lateral Reims.
Decisive double passer for Icardi, he did not find the fault despite many opportunities (6th, 18th, 54th).
He sometimes made the wrong choices but was a constant poison.

Flops
Di Maria, not in a great evening
Perhaps affected by his upcoming suspension from four matches in Ligue 1,
Angel Di Maria did not seem in his plate
on the lawn of Delaune.
If he was very available on the right flank, he did not have success with his left foot with a lot of set pieces and missed crosses.
El Fideo never seemed in the right tone and gave way before the end.
We will not see him again in Ligue 1 before November from now on.
Reims, willpower but limits
The Rémois will undoubtedly speak for a long time about this 61st minute.
While the score was still 1-0 for Paris, Boulaye Dia got a big chance by finding the post.
On the counter that followed, Icardi scored the double and somewhat extinguished the atmosphere.
One of the rare opportunities for the Champenois in a match made difficult especially by the technical quality of the opponent.
Despite their audacity, David Guion's men proved powerless, barely three days after their elimination in the Europa League.
