Athletic Bilbao/PSG – Doué, Safonov and missed chances: the highs and lows! | OneFootball

This Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain ended in a 0-0 draw (video summary Athletic Bilbao/PSG) against Athletic Bilbao as part of the 6th matchday of the 2025-2026 Champions League at San Mamés Stadium. Here are the highlights and lowlights of this match.

Tops –

❤️ Désiré Doué is back.

The 20-year-old midfielder/forward, injured in October against Lorient, finally returned to the field. This is excellent news as he is a special player. Of course, he wasn't at his best yet. He needs to regain his full strength.

Matvey Safonov.

The 26-year-old goalkeeper confirmed his good performance against Rennes last Saturday, with impressive saves both on and off his line. It's reassuring for PSG to know they have this security. Will there be real competition? We'll see when Lucas Chevalier (24 years old) returns from injury.

Flops –

😡A lapse in the first half.

It wasn't easy against Bilbao's excellent pressing in the first half, and PSG didn't add the right elements. There was little movement, slow play, and duels played without much intensity... At least there was a wake-up call afterward and no goals conceded during that 10-minute lapse.

The finishing.

There were mistakes in the play, difficulties, but also, ultimately, many opportunities. PSG should have scored more. By the 62nd minute, there were already 25 touches in the box. The magnificent play finished by Bradley Barcola in the 64th minute with a shot hitting the bar, while Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was perfectly positioned for a pass, is a good symbol of the lack of precision in choices and execution.
