Decisive figure delivers for Paris Saint-Germain at Angers | OneFootball

Lucas Beraldo unlocked Angers in the 39th minute with a defence-splitting pass, setting Paris Saint-Germain on course for a 3-0 win. His all-action display then included a set-piece finish after the break.

Operating high in build-up, the Brazilian stepped in and threaded a precise through ball that cut the hosts open (39.). From there, his passing range kept Angers pinned in their own third.

After the restart he attacked a right-wing corner, guiding the delivery over the line to tighten Paris Saint-Germain's grip (52.). It underlined his threat at dead balls as well as in open play.

He finished with one goal and one assist, six key passes and three big chances created, plus two shots on target. Completing 65 of 69 passes and making three clearances, he married control on the ball with calm defending.

With the visitors' structure giving him time to step into midfield, his distribution constantly asked questions and ensured the leaders dictated territory in Angers' half.
