Very good Messi

Discreet on Sunday against Monaco (1-1), Lionel Messi reacted well by releasing a big game on Wednesday.

The Argentinian, very influential in the game, played just between the tight lines of the Toulouse block.

He is to be credited with two assists, including an offering for Mbappé after having mystified Desler in the area (50th).

Collective, he was deprived of one or even several goals by a Dupe in a state of grace in his cage.

heroic tricked

Admittedly, Téfécé conceded three goals.

But the promoted could have conceded a much heavier defeat without the many saving interventions of Maxime Dupé.

The 29-year-old goalkeeper delayed the deadline for a long time in the first period and again pulled out all the stops in the second half, like his parade on a free kick from Messi (48th), or his duel won against to a Mbappé launched at full speed (73rd).

He finished the game with nine saves in total.

Impeccable.

Verratti goes on

Returned to the Parisian midfield, this time with Vitinha, Marco Verratti was omnipresent on the Stadium lawn.

Very active, with 10 balls recovered and 90% of duels won, the little Italian knew how to orient the game, like his crossbar for Messi at the origin of Mbappé's goal.

Paris controlling the debates in the second half, Christophe Galtier did not hesitate to breathe by replacing him with Renato Sanches (68th).

FLOPS

Toulouse cracked

Without complex, Téfécé made a good start to the match.

The Occitan club, arranged in a 3-4-3 similar to that of PSG, carried out heavy pressing and proved dangerous several times on the counterattack, in particular on two strikes from Dallinga repelled by Donnarumma (5th, 9th).

But Philippe Montanier's men quickly paid for their huge burst of energy, and suffered from the half-hour mark. PSG, without mercy, took the opportunity to quickly widen the gap and secure their victory.

Mukiele, a lackluster first

Nordi Mukiele took advantage of the turnover made by Christophe Galtier to celebrate his first tenure in the Parisian jersey, in a role of right piston.

A mixed baptism of fire.

Within a PSG which mainly attacked in the axis, the former Leipzig player had few balls to negotiate on his side.

And most of his calls were made in bad timing.
