PSG heavily criticised at the back, this stat says it all | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain once again goes against the grain of the constant criticism aimed at its balance. In a graphic published by DATA Foot using Opta data, the Parisian club appears as the Ligue 1 team that has conceded the fewest clear-cut chances this 2025-2026 season.

That is a stat that will sting a little for all those who spend their time explaining that PSG are fragile, poorly structured, or constantly on the verge of collapsing. On this specific indicator, Paris are quite simply ahead of everyone else, and by a fairly clear margin. In other words, despite the constant scrutiny placed on every chance they concede, the Parisian side does a better job than its rivals of limiting the clear openings given to the opposition.

This is no minor detail, still less a coincidence, since the Opta data cited by DATA’Foot refers here to easy scoring opportunities with little defensive pressure, penalties included. Of course, that does not mean PSG are perfect in every match. It does, however, confirm one very simple thing: the club remains at the forefront, even when some would rather claim the opposite.
