PSG is doing very well without Mbappé

Paris defeated Losc with a score of 3-1 this Saturday as part of the 21st day of L1. Without Mbappé.

PSG definitely has no rival this season. Apart from a misstep at home in mid-September against Nice (2-3), and a few draws conceded here and there after culpable relaxations, the Parisians are generally in control of their subject. Including in adversity and headwinds.

This Saturday at the Parc des Princes, the Lille residents had a bitter experience. While Luis Enrique chose to do without the services of Mbappé who suffered an ankle injury three days earlier against Brest in the Coupe de France – from the start to the end of the game; a first for the former Monegasque in six years – his team responded on all levels. Offensively in particular.

The gap is widening

With Dembélé and Barcola as detonators, and Ramos (10e) or Kolo Muani (80e) in conclusion, the capital club perfectly rehearsed its ranges before hosting Real Sociedad on Wednesday in the round of 16 first leg of the Champions League. The unfortunate Alexsandro, it is true, helped the locals by scoring against his camp (17e). This while the Mastiffs had taken the match from the right end thanks to an opportunistic Yazici.

On arrival, no more cold sweats for PSG, who could have won even more cheerfully without a very good Knight in the northern cage. At the top of the elite, Paris continues to widen the gap by pushing back its evening opponent, fourth, to 15 lengths. The first runner-up from Nice, host of Monaco this Sunday, temporarily finds itself on 11 points.
