Summary: Van - Paris Saint-Germain 4: 0 (Sport 1)
Lionel Messi's move to Paris Saint-Germain raised high expectations in the City of Lights, where they hoped to see the ability that earned the Argentine seven gold balls.

Beyond that, it was noted that Messi was surprised by the level of physicality and intensity in the French league.
