Three days away from facing Manchester City in the semi-final first leg of the Champions League, PSG won in Metz (3-1) this Saturday, and provisionally regains the lead of Ligue 1. This match was marked by his imprint by Kylian Mbappé, author of a double before going out, hit in the quadriceps, a few minutes from the final whistle.
Navas: 6.
Recovered from a shoulder injury that deprived him of the last two games (Saint-Etienne, Angers), the Costa Rican did the job.
Author of a good intervention on a strike from Centonze (29th), he can nothing on the equalization of this same player with the head (1-1, 47th).
Decisive then, on a recovery of Sarr (53rd) which could give the advantage to Metz.
Florenzi: 5.
Quite discreet offensively, the defender did not take any risks.
He held his lane rather well even if, on the Metz equalizer, he must be closer to Boulaya at the start.
Kehrer: 5.5.
Aligned in the axis of the defense, the former player of Schalke 04 achieved a fairly sober match, without notable errors.
Kimpembe: 5.5.
An authoritarian match of the Parisian captain who has rarely been caught failing.
He needs to communicate better with Kurzawa on the equalizer, although the first mistake is obviously his partner.
Kurzawa: 2.5.
For his first tenure since March 17, against Lille, “Kurz” suffered.
He commits a gross fault on the equalizer, leaving Fabien Centonze alone behind his back (1-1, 57th).
Warned in the 60th, he ended up giving way to Mitchel Bakker (64th) who did more (and better) than his friend.
Oukidja prevents him from scoring (77th).
Paredes: 5.5.
The Argentinean is still as interesting in the creation of the game. Even if, this Saturday, he played at a senator's pace.
A little more technical waste than usual.
Not far from finding the fault from afar (56th).
Herrera: 6.
Already performing last weekend against Saint-Etienne, he made an interesting copy illustrated by his marvelous assist for Mbappé (5th, 0-1).
His resumption at the end of the match comes up against the amount and deprives him of a goal (81st).
Verratti: 6.
His return as a starter has not gone unnoticed.
Verratti has shown, as often, how precious he is.
In high point of the middle to three, it went down a notch in the defensive phase.
His slaughter on recovery was considerable in the first period.
Less prominent during the last 45 minutes, probably for lack of pace.
Sarabia: 3.5.
Much too discreet.
The ex-Sevillian did the defensive work but hardly contributed anything by his forward game.
We will credit him with a good opening for Mbappé and a too soft head (41st).
Replaced by Angel Di Maria (64th).
Neymar: 5.
Good intentions, but waste. A record similar to that credited against Angers. The Brazilian played at an uneven pace. It is still he who does the pressing at the origin of the second Parisian achievement (1-2, 59th). He is close to offering a goal to Bakker (77th). Replaced by Mauro Icardi (81st) who gets the penalty of 3-1 and transforms it with a panenka (90 + 2nd).
Mbappé: 7.
The light came from the prodigy of Bondy, clinic in front of the cage. Three shots, two goals! Aligned in tip, the French international did not give a gift. He opens the scoring, with the help of the post, by chaining a control of the chest and a strike in the race (0-1e). Then, another mark with a heavy and deflected strike at 25 meters, helped by the hand fault of Oukidja (1-2, 59th). The only downside is his exit at the end of the match (replaced by Julian Draxler, 88th), affected in the quadriceps. A crutch, according to Mauricio Pochettino.
