Messi, again suspense

Messi’s adaptation to Ligue 1 is not, for the moment, the expected one for the PSG fan. The week of the Argentine star has been strange. On Monday he received his seventh Ballon d’Or, on Wednesday he was not well against Nice and yesterday it did not shine in the tie of the PSG in the field of the Lens. A performance that has not gone unnoticed by L’Équipe and Le Parisien, who have suspended him again in his match notes.

L’Équipe, like on Wednesday against Nice, has valued Messi’s game with a 4. “Clearly, it has not arrived. Again depleted by the post at minute 18, then he wasted many plays that have already become a habit in Paris. He was the one who lost the ball with Medina that originated the goal of Lens “, underlines the French newspaper. Surely, if Messi had scored the chance he crashed on the post yesterday, the note would have been different, but the former Barcelona player is not having luck in the face of goal so far this season.

Regarding Le Parisien, which was more forceful against Nice (giving it a 3), the newspaper closest to PSG has followed the same line as L’Équipe, evaluating Rosario’s match against Lens with a 4: “The seven-time Ballon d’Or could have put PSG on the right track, but his shot hit the post. He was even at the origin of Lens’s goal, losing the duel with Medina before his teammates stopped playing… ”.

Messi is currently the player with the most clubs in Ligue 1. Yesterday’s match against Lens was the fourth post that the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner so far this season has starred. A bad luck that can culminate with the worst first round in terms of goals for the Argentine, since to date he has only scored one goal in 17 days of Ligue 1 (having played only six full games) and has granted three assists .
