PSG – Toulouse: Parisian festival against TFC, the summary

PSG consolidated its place as leader of Ligue 1 by winning against Toulouse (3-0). Even if the addition is a little salty, it does a lot of good to the Parisians three days before a crucial match against Bayern.

Thank you à you for following this meeting with us, we will see you very soon on our site for other deadlines.

23:25 – To win in Paris, you have to score

Coach Martinez Novell remains on some regrets, particularly regarding the efficiency that his team lacked in the second half “When you want to win in Paris, you have to be perfect, you have to be clinical. Honestly, at half-time, we knew that to win here, we had to believe a little more. In the second half, with the changes, we managed to create chances. But hey, like I told you, you have to score. I know that last time we won here, but they were a little disconnected. But today, we had to stay in the game until the end."

Without being flamboyant offensively, nor very reassuring defensively, PSG imposed itself without forcing against an opponent from Toulouse who lacked the audacity and efficiency to hinder the French champion (3-0). Martin Novell's men nevertheless managed to make the Parisians doubt until the 85th minute and Beraldo's goal before sinking into stoppage time on a nice feat from Vitinha (90th), author of a wonderful composure following a beautiful offering from Kolo Muani. Guillaume Restes, the Toulouse goalkeeper was therefore beaten at first by a magnificent volley from Joao Neves (35th). But the international hopeful subsequently pushed back the deadline for a long time on shots from Barcola (34th), Hakimi (47th) and a beautiful action from Dembelá (59th).

Perhaps it would have taken a better reaction from Aboukhal, caught by Zaïre Emery (70th), more accuracy from Babicka (72nd) or a more efficient Magri in front of an excellent Safonov (80th) to swing the match in the other direction. What the Pitchouns achieved well in May (PSG's only defeat in the last 40 L1 matches), they lacked tonight against PSG, still as calm on the national stage.
