PSG escaped a Halloween night in the run-up to Halloween. Little more to rescue than the triumph against Lille and the awakening of Neymar, present in all the important moments of the team’s comeback (2-1). The champion did not hold. He could not face the response of the Parisian team, with more heart than head. Messi, again gray, had to stay in the locker room after the first half due to some discomfort that he dragged this week in the hamstrings.
PSG has compelling reasons to worry because they do not know what they are playing or seem to have an established plan. Lacking ideas, the indolence with which he expresses himself is even more disturbing. Surpassed at times by Lille, the box of Pochettino signed another first episode to delete. Messi wants and cannot, observed with a magnifying glass by the stands. The Argentine reflects the narcotic state of a PSG that is always waiting for one of its best footballers to make up reality.
Time passes and lives exposed as always, pending to score one more goal than the rival without noticing the consequences of being so fragile behind. It has nothing to do with Kimpembe O Marks but with little general discipline. Uncoordinated by the lack of defensive commitment, PSG drew a highway through which the champion traveled at will. In fifteen minutes he could have scored more than one a Donnarumma.
Pasotism is contagious and punishable. Without feeling the pressure on the neck, Yilmaz he planted himself in the area, went bankrupt Sweeper with ease and gave both to David: 0-1. Summary of the confusion of a PSG with his head elsewhere. To make matters worse, the surprise in the second half was that Messi will stay in the bank. Despite leaving little trace, he could not overlook that Pochettino was forced to do without 30 to make room for Icardi.
Without help when they have to run backwards, PSG was overcome by a Lille who forgave the 0-2. Donnarumma neutralized a petroleum jelly to Yilmaz and the rebound went through the roof to David. The capital’s team had no choice but to hold on to Neymar, a footballer up to now crestfallen. Although in a fit of character the 10 lit the fuse. A shot of his encouraged the people and PSG went for the comeback.
Better or worse, the Brazilian has resources for everything. He reeld a play in which Say Maria, from the baseline, he put a ball touched to the far post to clinch a goal Marks. The 1-1 called the epic script from other times. Scared, the Lille backed off. Icardi forgave an inexplicable heads up. But PSG had time to win behind a wall between Neymar and Say Maria, resolved by the Argentine with a low shot that relieves PSG already Pochettino.
