A crazy drama was recorded today (Sunday) at noon in the French capital, when Paris Saint-Germain eventually defeated Lille 4:3.

The champion took a double lead in 17 minutes, but the guest froze, after that Neymar was injured and was taken away on a stretcher and in the 69th minute the turnaround was completed, but a huge surprise was avoided with another goal by Kylian Mbappe in the 87th minute and a beautiful free kick that Lionel Messi turned in in the 90th+ minute 5, two minutes before the end of added time.



In the first round, Paris Saint-Germain defeated Lille 1:7 and in light of the double and early advantage established today by Mbappe and Neymar, it seemed that we were approaching a relatively similar scenario, but the bottom line is that the champion did what was assigned to her and returned to the winning track - even if in the most dramatic way possible.

However, Galtieri and his team are now troubled by the injuries of Nuno Mendes and Neymar, who was even carried away on a stretcher at the start of the second half after fracturing his ankle as tears flowed from his eyes.

In Paris Saint-Germain admitted immediately after the game that it is still too early to diagnose the severity of Neymar's injury, who groaned in pain and was taken from the grass on a stretcher, but the assessment is that it is a sprain and of course their goal will be to return him for the rematch against Bayern Munich in the round of 16 of the Champions League on March 8.



And if the dramatic events were not enough, an uncharacteristic moment was also recorded in the 76th minute, when PSG was still behind 3:2, then the television cameras recorded the professional manager Luis Campos going down to the technical area and scolding the referees and several players.

At the end, Galtier was asked about this, especially in light of reports published during the game, trailing 3:2, about his position being undermined: "I have the support of the management. Any coach who loses four consecutive games is in trouble, there is no doubt about that, but I have the support of everyone , including the president, and this is something that is very important to me."

Mbappe, who during the game was seen scolding his fellow defenders "You are four on one!"

Following Bamba's breakthrough goal in the 69th minute, he started for the first time since being injured last month and immediately celebrated a fantastic goal when he went through two players in the box and beat Luca Chevalier.

Mbappe today became the youngest player since Jimmy Greaves in 1962 to reach 150 goals in Europe's top five leagues, and also signed another rare statistic - in all 52 home games in which he scored, Paris Saint-Germain won.



At the end, Mbappe said: "The game was not great, we made a lot of mistakes, but we proved that even when the situation is not in our favor, we can succeed. We are a different team, we can manage and get out of it all the time."



Mbappe also referred to Neymar's injury and the many reports concerning his life and the unprofessional lifestyle he leads, and was asked if he intended to criticize him when he said that "we need good food and good sleep": "I saw people talking about it and it's really not what it was, I really didn't bite him. What I said is valid for everyone, it's just an advice I gave because when we're all healthy and here, the other teams have to fear us. I hope Neymar will return to play soon, he's very important for us."

Sprained ankle, apparently.

Stopper Presnel Kimpamba, who wore the captain's armband in the absence of Marquinhos even though Mbappe was also on the pitch, concluded: "It was a crazy game. We scored two quick goals, we calmed down after that and Lille managed to come back, but in the end we knew how to hold our heads up and get the victory."
