Lionel Messi crowns Paris

The Argentinian international succeeded in his match.

With 3 shots on target, 3 successful dribbles out of 3 attempted and 6 duels won out of 10, Lionel Messi performed well at the Parc des Princes.

The six-time Golden Ball scored a superb goal with a left-footed shot from 25 meters to allow Paris Saint-Germain to take the lead (68th).

If Lens ended up equalizing, this goal from the Argentinian allows Paris not to bow and to become champion of France for the 10th time in its history.

Messi's 4th goal in Ligue 1 in Parisian colors is therefore that of the coronation.

Marco Verratti makes history

The Parisian midfielder had a good match against the Lensois.

He touched 131 balls, delivered 3 key passes, managed 3 out of 3 dribbles, won 6 out of 10 duels and had a pass success rate of 92%.

“Petit Hibou” was important in the Parisian game this Saturday and goes down in the history of the capital club and the French championship.

Arriving at PSG in 2012, Verratti won his 8th league title and thus became the most successful player in the history of Ligue 1.

Corentin Jean symbol of Lensois panache

The Lensois never let go and demonstrated it again this Saturday at the Parc des Princes.

Overall dominated by PSG even if they were able to create opportunities, the Lensois snatched a draw at the end of the match.

While everything was against them after being reduced to 10 and being led in the score, the Sang et Or did not abdicate and Corentin Jean came to equalize in the 88th minute after a good collective movement.

This equalizer is the symbol of a team that does not give up even in difficulty.

Thanks to this goal from a player off the bench, author of his first goal in Ligue 1 this season, the Lensois remain in the race for Europe.

FLOPS

Danso sent back to the locker room

Frank Haise's men were dominated by the Parisians on Saturday evening and things did not get any better when their central defender, kevin Danso, was sent off.

First warned by Mr. Delerue for an obstruction on Neymar (9th), the Austrian was sanctioned with a second yellow card, synonymous with exclusion, for an uncontrolled tackle again on the Brazilian.

With this second sending off of the season, Danso left his teammates 10-11 for over 30 minutes.

Mbappé not having a good day

The French international must come out of this match frustrated.

If the 10th Parisian coronation, although a little bland, can come to console him, the Parisian striker was not successful this Saturday.

Very prominent and very restless throughout the game, Kylian Mbappé unfortunately did not find the net and harvested a lot.

He first has two good chances that he ends badly by shooting twice over Leca's goal (31st and 38th).

Then in the second half, he misses a great opportunity following a quickly played free kick.

Leca manages to touch his dive ball and Wooh pushes back the Frenchman's shot in stride on his line.

An interesting but frustrating match for the world champion.
