PSG dropped their first two points of the season this Saturday evening on the pitch at Reims (1-1).
PSG’s clean sheet came to an end this Saturday. The team from the capital saw its winning streak stop at 4 units this Saturday. During the 5e day, she had to settle for a draw on the Reims pitch. And there will be no one to cry scandal given the average performance delivered by Luis Enrique’s men at Auguste-Delaune.
Dembélé saves the day for the Parisians
The Parisians could even have lost without the victorious entry of Ousmane Dembélé. The French international avoided his team’s first away defeat in 26 matches by scoring just 3 minutes after coming on (68th). On the verge of offside, he appeared at the far post to take a perfect cross from Joao Neves. It was his 4th goal of the season. And there could have been a fourth in the 82nd if he had managed to get a header on target.
For Paris, this equaliser came a bit out of the blue, as the team had a hard time showing any threat. Before this goal, only Lee Kang-In sent shivers down the Champagne surface (21e). And the end of the match was not particularly exciting on the part of the visitors.

Reims are used to causing problems for Paris in their stadium. This was once again the case this Saturday. The French champions were even taken by the throat from the start, with a goal conceded in the 9th minute.e minute. Keito Nakamura freed an entire stadium by placing an unstoppable cross-shot in the box.
PSG no longer impresses
Luka Elsner’s team managed to maintain this advantage for over an hour before cracking. Their merit in having stood up to the best team in France will not be lessened. Ito and his colleagues also confirm their propensity to hang on to the big teams, after having already secured a draw against OM (2-2) last August.
For PSG, it’s a small setback. The limits of turnover were apparent in this match. Luis Enrique will have to review his copy. And perhaps tell himself that the substitutes they have are perhaps not up to the standard of the starters.
