Messi’s strike! Recovery of Vitinha at the level of the central circle. The Portuguese throws Messi into the depth, who comes in front of Higashiguchi and fires a shot from the left. Not crossed enough, unfortunately.

As in the first two games, PSG suffered heavy entry pressure in their half of the field and tried to move the ball cleanly in front of their surface. He succeeds, with an excellent exit from the ball orchestrated in particular by Verratti.

Nice exchange between Nuno Mendes and Neymar, who have fun between two opposing defenders on the left side. The public seems to like it.
The two teams make their entrance on the lawn!
The Parisians warming up!
The composition of Gamba Osaka
En 4-4-2: Higashiguchi –Fukuoka, Shoji, Miura, Kurokawa –Onose, Kurata, Dawhan, Ishige –Meshino, Suzuki.
The composition of PSG, with Verratti and Vitinha
Faithful to the 3-4-1-2 that he has put in place since taking office, Christophe Galtier has renewed this system with what can almost look like a typical team. Only Kylian Mbappé, who has had two starts in the last two games, is on the bench.
La compo : Donnarumma – Ramos, Marquinhos, Kimpembe – Hakimi, Verratti, Vitinha, Mendes – Messi – Neymar, Sarabia.
