Press review: Metz v PSG, nervy win for Paris | OneFootball

This Sunday, December 14, the French press (from a sports perspective) focused on Paris Saint-Germain’s 3-2 victory over FC Metz yesterday at the Stade Saint-Symphorien as part of the 16th round of Ligue 1.

Le Parisien –

L’Equipe –

There was a bit of everything in this victory: some very impressive collective energy at times, beautiful sequences, Quentin Ndjantou’s first goal, Désiré Doué scoring again… but also some lapses, too many chances and goals conceded, as well as a strangely uncontrolled end to the match.

We can note that Paris lacked control and will need to do better this season. However, there is also a victory in a packed schedule and a start to the season that looked very difficult. More is expected from the European champion, but they cannot always be at the level of that famous final. The team should gain momentum as the season progresses, especially if PSG manages to clear out its infirmary. In the meantime, young players are making a difference, and that’s an interesting point.

Paris now turns its attention to the Intercontinental Cup, with the final this Wednesday against Flamengo. An opponent with great qualities. It’s up to the Parisians to prepare as best they can.
