At 2:45 a.m. Beijing time on April 3, Paris Saint-Germain lost 1-0 at home to Lyon in the last match of the 29th round of the 2022-23 Ligue 1 season, losing two consecutive games and losing three times in the last four games. Kylian Mbappe and Messi muted, Lacazette missed a penalty and Barcora pushed the score.
Competition focus
Losing streak! Paris played another bad game at home and was unable to fight back after conceding the goal first. Paris has lost three times in the last four games, and Galti's position really hangs in the balance. Porter has already been sacked by Chelsea and Galty may be fast too.
Mu always dumb! Mbappe did not wear shooting boots for this game, and the support of his teammates was not in place. Mbappe completed three shots on goal and missed a great scoring opportunity.
Messi reached the 50th Ligue 1 milestone, but he could not celebrate with a victory. Messi played comfortably with the Argentine national team, but returned to the club with less support.
Wonderful review
In the fourth minute, Kylian Mbappe split the ball on the right flank and an unmarked Vitinha chose to shoot a dangling shot, but the ball went over the crossbar and Vitinha missed a great scoring opportunity.
In the 8th minute, Kylian Mbappe's powerful shot in front of the box was blocked by the defender. Then Messi made a wonderful pass with his heel, and Mbappe inserted a small angle to pick out the far corner, and the cooperation between Messi and Mbappe was very tacit.
In the 15th minute, Danilo missed the ball and Lyon instigated a quick counter-attack, Lacazette rubbed a cross into the box, Sarr returned the ball and Mendes missed a great opportunity with a push that inserted into the box. Lacazette then dunked Danilo in the box to play the goal, but fortunately Marquinhos returned to complete the block.
In the 38th minute, Donnarumma brought down Lacazette in the box, the referee showed the Paris goalkeeper a yellow card and awarded a penalty, Lacazette's ball hit the post and Tagliafico followed up with a follow-up shot and flew away, and Paris escaped.
In the 56th minute, Kumbeti inserted a low cross from the right and Barcola followed up to make it 0-1! Lyon, playing away from home, took the lead.
Paris made two changes in the 60th minute, with Ekitique and Ruiz coming off the bench, and Galti stepped up his attack. In the 67th minute, Barcora cut right-footed from the left inside box and Donnarumma fell to save the ball.
In the 76th minute, Emery passed the ball and Messi tried to shoot from distance with his left foot, and then Ekitik's attempt to hit the ground was saved by Lopez. In the 81st minute, Ashraf Neche's left-footed shot from the box deflected just wide into the far corner. In the 89th minute, Kylian Mbappe fired a powerful shot from the outside, the ball was deflected by the defender, and the goalkeeper flew to the rescue. The match ended with Grand Paris losing 1-0 at home to Lyon.
