23:20 – Paris ever closer to the title, the summary of the match
It could have been a historic evening, one that remains in the legend of a club. She will only stay one evening like the others. Not by the fault of the Parisians who did the job seriously and diligently on the lawn of Angers but by that of the Marseillais who refused defeat and ended up dominating Nantes, thus delaying the party (3-2). So in the absence of a title, PSG can be satisfied with the victory. A victory not suffering any challenge and once again bearing the seal of Mbappé.
If the start of the match had been marked by the flashes of Boufal, quickly released for a hamstring injury, half an hour into the game, it was the French international who splashed the game with his class. Initiating a movement to the right, he deceived Mandrea with a sharp shot from the left from the entrance to the surface. Angers then came out of his torpor but Cho lacked success and touched the outside of the post on a good action initiated by Fulgini. The people of Loire had just missed their chance. In added time, Sergio Ramos strolled through the Angevin defense to catapult an uncrossed header into the side net of a helpless Mandrea, on a corner played in two stages by Mbappé and Di Maria. The same Angevin defense was punished in the last quarter of the second half by Marquinhos, left alone like two of his teammates in the area on a new golden service from Di Maria.
Without forcing, Paris Saint-Germain, even deprived of many of its holders and in the absence of its president who had only made the trip to Angers, gleaned a new victory, the second consecutive away, a sequence that the club had not been successful since last November. The scenario even allowed Mauricio Pochettino to launch Bitshiabu in Ligue 1 (16 years old) at the end of the match. An end to the match marked by the expulsion of Michut, author of a sole on Thomas. The only real false note of the evening. With the three points brought back from Angers, PSG return to the capital with their destiny in their hands. The big night could be for Saturday when a draw will be enough to offer the Parc des Princes and the Parisian supporters the tenth title in the history of the club.

23:15 – Mbappé on another planet

23:08 – No title for PSG
Tonight, Paris Saint-Germain could be titled but for that, they had to achieve a better result than Olympique de Marseille. But the Marseillais were able to find the resources to dominate Nantes, which led twice to the score, and delay the Parisian coronation. This will perhaps take place next Saturday during the reception of Lens (9 p.m.). The Parisians will only need a draw, regardless of OM’s result, to secure the tenth league title in their history.

22:53 – ⌛ End of the ordeal for the Angevins against Paris Saint-Germain (0-3)
At the end of a match that they will have mastered and managed perfectly, Paris Saint-Germain sinks Angers and is getting closer to their tenth league title (3-0). Put on the right track by its providential striker Mbappé, the Parisian club was able to punish the wanderings of the Angevin defense by scoring twice again with headers from Sergio Ramos and Marquinhos. Too timid offensively and apathetic defensively, Angers could not have hoped for better, especially after Boufal’s early injury and remained stuck in 14th place.
