“
There is no reason to whistle our players
,” hammered Christophe Galtier on Friday at a press conference.
Message received ?
Not entirely.
If the Parisian players were generally applauded when they entered the lawn for the warm-up and again when the starting 11 was announced, the public at the Parc des Princes gave a more mixed reception to Leo Messi this Sunday, before PSG -Reindeer.
Applause all the same, but also whistles for the seven-time 35-year-old Argentine Golden Ball, who is undoubtedly blamed for not having performed the miracles that his status requires against Bayern.
"
Whistles for Leo Messi?
Why ?
Last season is last season.
Our players have given the maximum in this competition.
To be more specific compared to Leo, it's 18 goals and 17 assists.
We were not eliminated because of so and so.
We were eliminated because Bayern arrived in much better shape than us in this double confrontation

Nothing happened between Leo and the band, between Leo and me
