Who would have thought that the big Paris of Real Madrid in midweek would be vulnerable to the league, and it would be 0-3 in the opening 45 minutes. For this score, the Paris frontcourt Trident can be said to be mostly responsible, and all three are not involved in the defense. Mbappe, in particular, is the direct culprit for the team's goal conceded.
The 25th round of Ligue 1 was contested with Greater Paris away to Nantes. In this game, Paris offered a 433 formation, the back line Kimpembe, Maquinhos, Bernat, Korel, the midfielders Verratti, Wijnaldum and Geye, and the front line was Mbappe, Neymar and Messi.
Only 4 minutes into the opening, Mbappe made a mistake with the ball on the right, the opposing player directly cut off the ball to launch a counterattack, Muani took the ball into the box and faced Navas with an easy push to break the goal. 12 minutes later, the Paris backcourt made another mistake, and Merlin picked up his teammates on the perimeter to make a heavy shot. 2-0, Nantes extended the score. Conceding two goals in the opening 16 minutes, Paris started with a nightmare.
After conceding two goals in a row, Paris woke up like a dream and then launched a crazy counterattack. In the 32nd minute, Neymar was brought down with a break through the middle of the box to get a very good free kick opportunity outside the box. Neymar shot straight at goal and was blocked by a wall.
In the 38th minute, Mbappe broke through on the right and was shoveled down by the opponent, limping up, suspected of being injured. In the 43rd minute, Neymar was straight in, Mbappe burst into the box with the ball and was brought down, and the referee decisively whistled and showed a red card to the defending Apia, expelling the latter from the game. After a VAR review, the referee cancelled Apia's red card and awarded a yellow card instead, and Paris was awarded a free kick opportunity outside the box. Messi sent the ball into the box and was cleared by the opposing defender's header.
In first-half stoppage time, Wijnaldum was fouled for handball while defending in the penalty area and was sentenced to capital punishment by the referee, with a yellow card and a penalty. Barras scored the ball with ease, extending the score to 3-0 and Paris trailing 3-0 at halftime. Witnessing the team lose this ball, Messi and Neymar on the periphery moved in sync, with their hands crossed at the waist, very helpless.
