Even without holding a ceremony, PSG managed to excite Leo Messi last night (Wednesday) in his first game in the team's uniform since winning the World Cup.
The player received an especially warm welcome from the fans who cheered for him for many minutes, waved signs of encouragement and made many more tributes in his honor, and he returned them with a beautiful goal in a 0:2 victory over Anjou.
It was the flea's 13th goal in 20 appearances this season, and it seems that the vacation he took to rest and gather new energy after the euphoria of lifting the World Cup helped him come back sharp and focused.
Christophe Galtier said at the end: "Leo is back in fantastic shape, and the welcome the fans gave him must have warmed his heart. In the few training sessions he did with us before the game, he looked calm and light, and above all in great physical condition. I asked him at halftime if he felt he was able to continue, and he He insisted that he did. And as long as he's on the field, it's clear that the game is much easier for us, and everything opens up."

The coach, missing Kylian Mbappe, may have forgotten him a little when he praised the Argentine.
"Today we saw the best player in the world. He is above everyone else, that's clear. He is happy after winning the World Cup, you see this is the only title he was missing," said the coach.
