Messi delighted against Saint-Etienne
Messi, Messi, Messi . On Saturday, when Paris Saint-Germain won against Saint-Etienne (3-1), the Parc des Princes looked like Camp Nou for the brilliant Argentinian striker. It must be said that the sevenfold Ballon d’Or was particularly inspired during this evening.
Two decisive passes and a rediscovered genius
Somewhat disappointing since his arrival in France last summer, Lionel Messi (34) yesterday achieved his most successful performance in the Parisian jersey. Rated 8/10 by the Maxifoot editorial staff (see debrief and NOTES), La Pulga seemed very comfortable on the pitch in a free electron position. The Argentinian took the game on his own to find solutions in the opposing block. And with success, since he opened up space for his teammates thanks to his movements and delivered two decisive passes to Kylian Mbapp.
In front of an admiring park, the former Barcelonan delighted with dribbling in the small spaces of which he has the secret. Something too rarely seen since his departure from Catalonia. It was moreover following a small number between three Stphanois that he served Mbapp on the second goal of Paris SG in the second period (47th). Before the break, he had already found the French striker in the area on a light through pass (42nd). Decisive and spectacular, Messi had regained his genius on Saturday evening.
Mbapp s’clate with Messi
After a period of adaptation, is Messi finally launched with Paris? He is a great player, I am also happy for him, he is adapting to a new life, a new club. Even when you win seven Ballons d’Or, you have to adapt too, he’s getting better and better , confided Mbapp after the meeting. A rise in power which inevitably delights Mauricio Pochettino. He is amazing, wonderful. Today he only missed one goal estimated the Parisian coach.
Ten days before the round of 16 second leg of the Champions League against Real Madrid (1-0 victory for the Parisians in the first leg), on March 9, seeing the native of Rosario again at this level is obviously very good news for the PSG. Especially since his complicity with a stratospheric Mbapp begins to take shape.
