PSG, without internationals, with a majority of young people, could not win this Saturday against FC Chambly, from the Third Division (2-2), in the second pre-season friendly for Mauricio Pochettino's men, despite goals from Mauro Icardi ( penalty) and ex-Barcelona player Xavi Simons, who already scored one goal each in the first trial, against Le Mans (5-0). Under sticks, Keylor Navas. Sergio Rico, Julian Draxler or Layvin Kurzawa, among others, jumped onto the pitch from the bench. As planned, Sergio Ramos did not play and trained separately.
The match was played at the Camp des Loges. Icardi scored from a penalty in the 19th minute and Simons, assisted by Gharbi, did so in the 64th minute. Chambly leveled PSG's advantage twice. First, through Guillaume Heinry (57 ') and Boubacari Doucouré (89').
Achraf Hakimi missed the match after testing positive for coronavirus. PSG started by putting into practice a 4-4-2 close to a 4-2-3-1, to go on to a 4-3-3 in the second half. PSG play their third pre-season friendly next Wednesday in Orléans against Augsburg.
