The day came. Leo Messi’s debut with the PSG shirt is already a reality after Barça could not renew it and on August 5 and five days later he ended up signing for the Parisian club. And he made his debut in his team’s victory at Reims (0-2), with a double by Mbappé, who at the end of the transfer market could end up in Madrid.
A visibly calm Messi was seen when the match started. The Argentine saw the first half and part of the second on the bench, where he sat next to his Argentine compatriot and teammate Leandro Paredes. From there, he saw how in the 15th minute Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring (0-1). And he also saw, already in the five minutes of the restart, how the referee annulled a goal of the local Munetsi for offside. A play that was being reviewed for a while from the VAR.
As the 58 minute approached, the Mauricio Pochettino coach decided it was time for a substitution. It was only seven minutes, until 65, when it came time for the debut. Before, however, Mbappé had time to put the second for the visiting team in the 63rd minute.
It was the 65th minute and the Parisian fans who were able to access the Auguste Delaune stadium in Raims went crazy when the Argentine entered the field of play with the number 30, with which he made his debut with Barça on October 16. 2004 at the Montjuïc Olympic Stadium against Espanyol. That day, he did so by replacing Deco, yesterday he took the place of his friend Neymar. Therefore, the trident formed by Messi, Neymar, Mbappé could not be seen on the playing rectangle, and perhaps it will never be seen because all the rumors suggest that the Frenchman will finish at Real Madrid in the next few hours.
Rosario’s striker played inside, trying to help create his team’s game. He even had a couple of starts from his teammates and looked for him but for now, his first goal with the PSG shirt will have to wait.
