2021-02-16T22:37:30.322Z


The Parisians destroyed Barcelona (4-1) in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. In three weeks, at Parc des Princes, the 10m


No need to reassemble on March 10.

PSG is in orbit for a qualification for the quarter-finals of the Champions League, after having dominated Barcelona in great lengths at Camp Nou, at times ridiculing the mythical Catalan club, which it destroyed gently, methodically, patiently (1 -4).

Basically, this is the only regret at the end of this demonstration, the result does not really indicate the gap between the two teams because the club of the capital could have passed perhaps the double, by mixing the greed for realism.

Mauricio Pochettino's PSG, of which this is the first major coup, proved to be infinitely superior to Barça of Ronald Koeman, who will live hectic hours, between a furious press, a presidential election where he will become a central subject of political promises in the sense of impeachment and a return where he will discount a miracle to survive in the competition.

Mbappé, absolute crack

As such, it would be good that once in his life, when he destroyed his opponent in the first leg and there is no danger lurking, PSG quietly qualifies for the next round.

No French club has ever won in Barcelona in the Champions League, this is not the time to spoil this moment which will remain in the history of PSG as of Barcelona.

After the 4-0 in 2017 against Barcelona and the 2-0 in Manchester in 2019, no slippage would be understood or admitted this time.

It's time to grow, including by validating without negative pressure in the second leg what the first leg said, revealed, written in stone: Paris is stronger than Barcelona, ​​a thousand times stronger.

And if there's a genius in the box, he's French.

Barcelona-PSG (1-4): Mbappé, Kimpembe, Kurzawa ... the Blues of Paris have eclipsed those of Barça


Paris, the lamp and the genie.

A man dazzled this first part of the round of 16, Kylian Mbappé, once again became the natural candidate for one evening and declared that he was at the Ballon d'Or.

Looks like finding Leo Messi turns him on.

The world champion, under the burning gaze of one of his world idols, rose to an absolute level of crack, eclipsing the absence of Neymar, allowing him to be forgotten.

He likes to face the best player in the world remembering that he has the potential to become one too, even if he is still far from equaling him.

But, at 22 years old, Mbappé has already given so many emotions to football fans that we do not remember an equivalent in the history of this game. What he achieves is incredible.

The Catalans in the state of foil

Since the big games belong to the big players, the 1-1 that arose at the end of the first period saw Kylian Mbappé respond to Leo Messi's penalty.

The duel, at a distance and announced, took place, the powerful men taking the power of a match where the Catalans left possession to the Parisians, like a fear of blocks and the speed of the French world champion.

Mbappé is great for his impact on the field but also for the threat he embodies in the headache of opposing coaches, forced to adapt their tactics according to his immense qualities.

But this first act was almost a decoy.

After the break, PSG accelerated, reducing the Catalans to the state of stooges at the same time as they turned up the sound.

His second half looks almost like a masterpiece, at least until 3-1, with bright actions, a Mbappé in the center of everything, important Ter Stegen saves and a Moise Kean author of the third goal, in reward for his investment.

And Pochettino's choices.

Where some thought Pablo Sarabia was going to do the trick, the Argentina coach picked the Italian to indicate he wanted to win.

It looks like the new PSG technician is being listened to, even heard.
