PSG and Al Nassr Battle to a Scoreless Draw in Pre-Season Friendly

90th+3 – END OF THE MATCH! No winner between PSG and Al Nassr. Final score 0-0. No huge chances on either side, the draw makes sense. The Parisians lack rhythm and will have to be much more enterprising in three days against Osaka!

90th – Three minutes of added time

87th – Lack of automation between Fabian Ruiz and Gharbi. Scramble this endgame

84th – Another Parisian strike, Lemina launches Housni who strikes first intention, without danger

83rd – Gharbi launched on the right side but his low cross is not precise, it’s clear

81st – Noha Lemina dribbles and is mowed down just in front of the box, eccentric free kick for PSG

80th – The crowd chants the name of Neymar, who could play for a few minutes

75th – The changes have brought more impact to the Parisian game. Noha Lemina, he seems tired

73rd – The Saudi response on the counter, concluded with this pivot shot from Adam, captured by Donnarumma

72nd – The aggressiveness of Kurzawa who recovers the ball high and sends a strong cross, taken up by the chin of Housni. New Parisian opportunity

69th – The biggest opportunity in Paris! What a pass from Verratti which finds Gharbi in depth but the shot from the young Parisian is pushed back!

66th – Other changes for Al Nassr: Talisca, Al Ghannam, Mado out. Entrances to Buwashal, Al Fatil and Al Hassam

64th – Succession of corners for Al Nassr, well pushed back by the new Parisian defense

59th – PSG to prepare changes

53rd – Change on the Al Nassr side: entry of rookie Alex Telles, Alghannam and Alkhaibari. Release of Konan, Seko Fofana and Ghareeb

1:23 p.m. – Statistical level: 6 strikes for PSG, 4 on target. Only 2 attempts for the Saudis

45th+1 – IT’S HALF-TIME AT NAGAI STADIUM IN OSAKA! PSG and Al Nassr neutralize each other in a sluggish match. 0-0 at the break. Note the beautiful first period of Noha Lemina on the Parisian side. Cristiano Ronaldo had the best chance of the game

39th – Change for Al Nassr: Yahya leaves, Al Sulaiheem enters the middle

38th – Superb cross from Lucas Hernandez towards Ndour who does not arm his volley in first intention, his shot is blocked, too bad.

36th – The Parisian spark always comes from Lemina! What a hook from the young player who addresses a perfect cross, pushed back in extremis by the Saudi defense

35th – Difficult to find speed in the Parisian game, very few movements on the sides like Lucas Hernandez, transparent

31st – Ghareeb easily dribbled past Danilo and entered the box but his center back was pushed back for a corner

29th – When we talk about the wolf, Ronaldo recovers the ball in the box, turns around and arms, his shot is blocked

28th – We see very little Cristiano Ronaldo in this first period, it must be said that the Danilo-Skriniar hinge does the job

24th – Noha Lemina again, who hits his side and causes a fault very close to the surface

22nd – What a pass from Zaire-Emery who launches Lemina alone in front of the goal, but his cross shot is touched with the fingertips by the opposing goalkeeper!

20th – Possession of the ball: 70% PSG – 30% Al Nassr

12:06 p.m. – On the PSG side, it’s been grimace soup since this announcement to dismiss Kylian Mbappé from the group present in Japan for the summer tour. The club hardens the tone: either the French extend, or he will be sold in the coming days.
