Three matches and seventeen goals scored during them. This was exactly the calling card of the French PSG, which successively demolished Clermont, Montpellier and Lille at the start of the new Ligue 1 season. The first loss of points came in the 4th round, when the star team drew 1:1 with Monaco at the home stadium.
The slow start of coach Galtier’s charges resulted in a conceded goal, but it could have been equalized by the end of the half. Kylián Mbappé had a seemingly easy job, in front of whom, thanks to the goal structure, the ball bounced in front of an empty goal and it looked like a routine shot into the goal. The opposite was true.
The offensive jewel in the services of PSG underestimated the situation and instead of hitting the net, it only rattled the right post, so the helpless goalkeeper Alexander Nübel could thank Ms. Štěstěna. Spectators and players couldn’t believe their eyes, they had probably never seen something like this in a player of Mbappé’s quality before. In addition, Minela underlined the not-so-good performance of the entire team in the first half.
The kick of the French representative was even named as the kick of the season according to the SportBible server. “Kylian Mbappé made the end of the season when he couldn’t hit a completely empty goal from six meters,” reads the website.
In the second half, thanks to Neymar’s penalty, the home team managed to equalize at 1:1, so both teams shared a point.
