No Neymar and no Mbappe at the kick-off today at PSG. Neymar dropped out last week with an ankle injury. Mbappe was given some rest before Tuesday?
Still, the Paris team could not complain about the attacking trio that kicked off against Lens, fifth in the Ligue 1 standings. With Messi, Icardi and Di Maria it brought an Argentine A-team between the lines.
Still, the Argentine attack failed to break the spell. In fact, on the hour Seko Fofana took advantage of a blunder by goalkeeper Navas. The Costa Rican let a long shot slip through his gloves.
For a long time it looked like Lens was going to consolidate that lead. But you’re never done with the Parisians. In the very last minute, “The Flying Dutchman” took care of the buzzerbeater. Wijnaldum towered over everything and everyone on a cross from Mbappé to make it 1-1.
PSG have already received a warning shot in the run-up to the Champions League match against Club Brugge.
