Angers-PSG (0-3): one more step towards the 10th title of champion of France

2022-04-20T21:43:59.685Z


PSG, with a new tactical scheme, won the match that should not be lost if the capital club wants to be crowned champion


In Ligue 1 too, we will therefore have to wait until this weekend to (possibly) know the final winner of this championship.

This Wednesday in Angers, Paris won the match that it was better not to lose to be crowned on Saturday evening.

And even if all the polls place him as the future winner of this 2021-2022 season (he will need a point to be titled), Marseille, winner of Nantes, has postponed the coronation of the Parisians by one or more days.

If PSG were to stumble against Lens on Saturday evening at the Parc des Princes, the wait will continue a little longer for a Paris which still has some assets in its game to quickly bend the match.

The main one of them is called Kylian Mbappé, provider of happiness, even if this success against the Angevins will ultimately remain as a summary of the Parisian season in Ligue 1.

We were a little bored, still marveling at the Frenchman's efficiency, and Paris won against a limited opponent.

Not enough to make it the match of the year, even if it is the one that could have allowed PSG to win its 10th title in a funny atmosphere.

Faithful to what they decided after the elimination against Real Madrid, the Parisian ultras "present but silent (their motto)", made the trip to Anjou but they did not sing the slightest song.

As an observer, we therefore contented ourselves with what there was to take.

And in this little game, it is original to note that Mauricio Pochettino installed his defense with three axials when we least expected it, and especially against an opponent who did not seem to have overflowing offensive potential.

Icardi, it turns into a fiasco

But, there you have it, this scheme which seemed cut out for the MNM, the Argentinian chose to test it from the outset the day Messi and Neymar, respectively injured and suspended, remained in Paris.

As Mauro Icardi, whose season continues to turn into a fiasco, injured his left thigh during the warm-up, there were only Mbappé and Di Maria, author of two assists, left to animate the front of the attack.

For the Argentinian it's a way to give some relief to a disappointing season which could be his last in the capital.

Finally, this 3-5-2 system did not spark, the opposite would have been surprising given the lack of automatisms that exist between the Parisians, what is more between players who benefit from a low time games (Bernat, Dina Ebimbe, Wijnaldum among others).

But this device offers an additional tactical solution that could put Messi, Neymar and Mbappé in an ideal position.

Saturday against Lens, if the Argentinian returns, it would be appropriate especially since Sergio Ramos, scorer and strong in Angers, is no longer injured and has a series of serious performances, certainly against pusillanimous opponents.

But Lens, the team in form, has all the good test for the Spaniard and for Paris and its new tactical scheme.

We ask to (re) see.
