POCHETTINO TIME! What an incredible end to the game! This Sunday afternoon at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain narrowly won against AS Saint-Etienne (3-2). A capital result which allows the Parisians to get closer to the Lille leader (69 points for the Ile-de-France residents against 70 for the Mastiffs) who was held in check on the lawn against Montpellier (1-1).
For the Stéphanois, it is a slight halt. Claude Puel’s proteges remained on two consecutive victories in the league against Bordeaux and Nîmes. A defeat that could bring them down to 15th place.
This last quarter of an hour has been crazy. ?

Very good operation for Paris Saint-Germain against AS Saint-Etienne. After a crazy match after being led to the score, Mauricio Pochettino’s men finally had the last word against the Greens.
A success of great importance which relaunches the race for the title. Presnel Kimpembe’s teammates return to a point in LOSC.

Kylian Mbappé, again and again him. The French hate defeat. In difficulty in the first period and weaned from balls against the rearguard of the Greens, the French world champion set the record straight in the second period by showing himself to be decisive on two occasions. Note that this is his 23rd goal in Ligue 1 and his 35th goal in all competitions.
The savior of PSG! Returning from injury and coming into play in the second half in place of Moise Kean, Mauro Icardi delivered his own in the very last minutes of the match on a saving header.
Positioned at the far post on a cross from his compatriot Angel Di Maria, the Parisian number 18 shows that he is still one of the important players in the workforce and that he can make the difference when he is needed. A goal that will do him the greatest good.
ASSE did not go far. of the feat Wahbi Khazri’s partners could have done better. In front of the scoreboard with a goal scored by Denis Bouanga, they were quickly caught by rabid and determined Parisians before coming back to the score to the surprise with a realization of Romain Hamouma.
Unfortunately, they broke down at the end of the match and let slip a precious point that could have made the difference in accounting terms at the end of the season. However, everything is not to throw for the men of Claude Puel who showed good things against the current second in Ligue 1.
