A lack of “personality”.
The same expression returned to the mouths of Marquinhos and Kylian Mbappé just after the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League against Real Sociedad (2-0).
Stifled by the Basque block for at least one half, PSG still ended up avoiding the bad joke on a set piece (58th) then a counter initiated by Dembélé and concluded by Barcola (70th).
But what about everything that happened before, this “nightmare” mentioned by Luis Enrique at a press conference?
His group was supposed to have gained momentum since the restart.
From the start of this full-scale test, we actually found the same reasons for concern as in the fall, when PSG took on water in Newcastle (4-1) or Dortmund (1-1) , unable to get the ball out cleanly from the opposing harassment and grid.
The promises seen against Brest (3-1) then against Lille (3-1) over the last ten days did not last long.
