PSG v Marseille: Pacho unlucky, Ramos shines, Chevalier the hero | OneFootball

This Thursday, during the 2025 Trophée des Champions, Paris Saint-Germain faced Olympique de Marseille at the Jaber Al-Ahmad International Stadium in Kuwait. After a match where the Red and Blue conceded chances, they could have regretted it with this 2-2 draw, finally won in the penalty shootout (see the PSG/OM video summary). Here are our ratings for the Parisians.

Goalkeeper –

Lucas Chevalier (9) – It must be said, he delivered his best half of his Parisian season. His first act was impeccable, saving several situations including a high-quality reflex save. More great things in the second half. It's a shame he conceded that penalty in the 75th minute, he hesitated too much to come out and ended up making a decision too late. His penalty shootout performance, with two saves, was superb.

Defenders –

Warren Zaïre-Emery (6.5) – A serious first half, but a bit timid. Very solid, he still showed that he has stature, physically, he is intimidating. Replaced in the 89th minute by Gonçalo Ramos.

Marquinhos (6) – He did his job in the first half, but Paris suffered a lot on corners, it's also up to him to adjust things at that moment. More focused in the second half, he controlled the game better.

Willian Pacho (5) – Solid, he won his duels well in the first half. A bit timid in the box on opposing corners. Another serious match from him. It's a shame he scored an own goal at the end of the match.

Nuno Mendes (7) – He is having a high-quality start to the year and his first half confirms it. He has fire in his legs and is improving defensively.

Midfielders –

Joao Neves (5.5) – A rather average first half. More visible in the second half, he managed to raise his game, especially technically.

Vitinha (6.5) – Not his best start to a match, but he made an assist and in this type of match, that counts a lot. Even in a less accomplished match, he remains a pillar of this team.

Fabian Ruiz (5) – Quite average, although very mobile, it's regrettable that he sent a few balls away instead of calming the game. He was somewhat withdrawn in a match with intensity. Replaced in the 89th minute by Senny Mayulu.

Forwards –

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (6) – The best offensive player in the game, he defended well and managed to take advantage several times over his direct opponents. He might have been a bit more selfless in some situations. Replaced in the 72nd minute by Bradley Barcola.

Ousmane Dembélé (6) – Apart from the goal, he didn't have much presence with the ball in the first part of the match. He still continued his pressing. In the game, he almost no longer makes a difference.

Désiré Doué (6.5) – A very discreet start to the match and far from what he is capable of. Still some classy moves, but he lacked a bit of success, especially in the second half.

Coach –

Luis Enrique (6) – This PSG has less control than last season, that's clear. There is of course a solid base, but less margin. He needs to find solutions in a complicated season with the lack of preparation. Another title for him.
