Mbappé, still at the rendezvous
He probably only has a few months left to evolve with PSG and the fans of the club are seeing week after week how much he will miss next summer in the event of a probable departure. Because without forcing his talent, Kylian Mbappé was triply decisive with Paris. On the lawn of Vannes, the attacker first started timidly, with a few missed shots. But in the second half, he was determined to find the loophole. He first opened his goal counter by speeding up the opposing defense, before scoring. Then shot the opposing goalkeeper on a shot entering the area. Before tripling the bet closely. He is now 150 goals with PSG in all competitions.
LiveCoupe de France: led by a great Mbappé, PSG did not tremble in Vannes
Simons, on his momentum
He had been very interesting in the previous round against Feignies-Aulnoye and he performed again in this match against Vannes.
Very available in the midfield, he served as a relay to his partners, in particular Verratti.
A technical relationship that has helped bring the Parisian environment to life.
Not necessarily at his best position, on the right, he constantly sought to serve the collective and ended up delivering a decisive pass to Mbappé.
Nuno Mendes, interesting activity
The Portuguese side made a good copy on the lawn of Vannes. While the PSG attacked especially in the axis, its contribution on the side was invaluable. Very active on the left flank, he delivered a few good crosses and ended up being decisive with a well-shot corner for Kimpembe (28th). Its application on set piece is also to be noted. And he never wavered throughout the game.
Kimpembe, doubly decisive
This does not often happen to the PSG evening captain and it deserves to be highlighted: Presnel Kimpembe scored a goal.
His 2nd in professional after the one registered at Old Trafford against Manchester United almost three years ago (February 2019).
Well placed on a corner, the Parisian defender allowed his team to open the scoring, before being actor of the second goal on an opening for Mbappé.
Flops
Valves never existed
The VOC had the will to press high from the start to disrupt PSG. But the Breton club ended up weakening physically and mentally. Over the minutes, the difference between this National 2 team and the leader of Ligue 1 was clearly felt. Powerless, the Vannetais will however have given everything on the lawn of their Rabine stadium.
Herrera-Wijnaldum, the Parisian disappointments
Former Premier League players Ander Herrera and Georginio Wijnaldum are used to these fights in the rain with an aggressive team in front.
But both men were disappointing, as has often been the case lately.
Mentally disturbed, Herrera does not seem the same as at the start of the season, while the Dutchman has never been sharp despite having had interesting situations to negotiate.
Benefits that are starting to worry.
