Nice draw an intermittent PSG

There was no fifth consecutive victory for PSG in the league, stuck against an organized Nice. The tie will not change the life of the team of Pochettino, but it denotes that things are not working as expected. Before the cry for help it cannot always appear Messi, applauded in the Parque de los Príncipes by its people, to whom he offered the Ballon d’Or in the run-up to a match that did not deserve to win. The tie did justice (0-0).

PSG does not escape the intermittence, little encouraged by the lack of competition it has in France. He gets bored of winning without much effort and does not repair to see that this is the worst of the traps he faces, punished when he leaves for Europe. The first half was a wanting and not being able to against a Nice that narrowed as much as it could to deny the spaces to Messi already Mbappé. Another excuse for everyone to wage war on their own.

That way of playing guarantees him success in the league but it can condemn him in the Champions League, which is why he has been doing his best for years Al Khelaifi. The team does not convince and insists on entrusting everything to the same as always. Messi a direct free was generated in the front of the area that failed to finish off. Achraf He also had the 1-0 after a play unleashed by the Argentine, the most participative against Nice that threatened with a shot of Delort to the body of Donnarumma.

PSG has a hard time deciphering each game and tonight it was patronizing. Say Maria forgave a heads up and Mbappé did not do good an assist of Leo. In the absence of better news came the entry of Verratti, brain of a team that needs architects in addition to the many artists that already exist. A gear was uploaded in the second half although the clearest chance was from Nice: a point-blank shot from Dolberg that went to the miracle stick.

Before the urgency, Pochettino opted for the usual changes. Walls to give you more creativity in the core and Icardi with the intention of hunting any of the balls that served Mendes and Achraf. There were not the luck of other nights in which PSG scratched the victory in the final stretch of the game and almost without knowing how. Against Nice he collided with reality. A tie that can come in handy to reflect and realize that you have to improve in every way. Especially if you want to make a mark in Europe.
