Clearly, you’ll have to wait to see L’Equipe get excited about a PSG’s match. Barely average for a number of players, it’s as if PSG had played an average match, at a low tempo. They still haven’t learned how to measure up, and at some point you can tell they’re grading in a biased way. The players deserve more, except perhaps Barcola.
Beraldo was good, Lee play a good game, congratulated by Roy, Neves did a lot of things in the shadows, but he was there to do them. We won’t change opinions, but you have to know when a match is exciting, and it was. The players obviously had something to do with it.
