Yesterday we watched two important matches, the first was PSG-Rennes. In the first half, Rennes scored at the end of the first half and closed the first half 1-0 ahead. Rennes scored the second goal in the first minutes of the second half and despite PSG increasing the pressure, they did not concede a goal.  This is an important win for Rennes. I didn't expect them to get 3 points in a tough away match. When we look at the matches between them, I already saw that Rennes gave PSG trouble, so Rennes is a team that is against PSG.
Even though PSG dominated possession, they were surprised by Rennes at the end of the first half. PSG didn't feel confident until the second half had to concede again for the second goal, this defeat actually embarrassed PSG at home because the visiting team was unexpectedly able to excel in this match.  Cheesy
This match showed us that money and squad don't matter, that it doesn't matter if you don't have more possession. The one who gets into position and scores wins. When we look at the squads of the two teams, PSG are clearly superior and it is normal to expect them to win at home. But soccer is such a strange sport that anything can happen at any moment. That's why we watch and wait with excitement until the last minute.

Hah yeah, after I replied to him I noticed that he is one of those 1xbit shitposters whose posts should be ignored/reported and deleted. Since mods are reluctant to do the latter, I opted for ignore so I don't see more of that drivel.


PSG has two of the best players in the world Messi and Mbappe in the attack. Rennes' defenders were able to successfully block these two players. Rennes' defense was very solid in this match.
If Rennes has to thank anyone, that's their goalkeeper as he was bascially the man of the match. Either way PSG is a mess and woulnd't put a dime on them.

PSG didn't feel confident until the second half had to concede again for the second goal, this defeat actually embarrassed PSG at home because the visiting team was unexpectedly able to excel in this match.  Cheesy
Of course such a defeat is shocking especially because PSG are playing at home. Rennes managed to take advantage of their opportunities well where 2 of the 3 good opportunities were goals. Meanwhile, PSG, which actually managed to take 7 shots on target, failed to score a single goal. Steve Mandanda was really good in the match, he made 7 saves out of 7 PSG chances during the match.
I think Rennes is not too weak for PSG because they are a top Ligue 1 team that should be considered. This season Rennes are struggling to qualify for the Europa League if Monaco fail to maintain their position in the standings. Monaco's advantage is only about 3 points from Rennes, this is still very likely to be expected.
Genesio really implemented the right strategy to suppress the domination of PSG. can't believe PSG wasn't able to score at home even with enough chances created.
although the result did not affect PSG's standings, losing 0-2 was enough of a blow for them. no wonder they should be eliminated from the last 16 of the Champions League. a team like Munich is still too strong for PSG. with so many good players in the team, PSG is still lacking in their squad.

I think beating PSG 2-0 is a big achievement for a team like Rennes. PSG has two of the best players in the world Messi and Mbappe in the attack. Rennes' defenders were able to successfully block these two players. Rennes' defense was very solid in this match. And their match strategy was also excellent. However, this match made it clear that PSG has a lot of weaknesses within their squad. And coach Galtier completely failed to stabilize the team.

Exactly!

At the beginning I even wondered if the game had been rigged, I found PSG so bad, and so out of the game! Genesio really did well.

I have to tell you that I'm glad I made the decision to never bet in favor of Paris again. If tomorrow they were to play against a secondary city, I would ask myself the question, but they would still be able to disappoint me once again.

On the other hand, I am much less optimistic than piebeyb about Rennes. I'm convinced they'll get tired before the end of the season and go downhill, as often

I see a lot of people use this Match as a measure for PSG ability,  forgetting that When luck is not on your side,  that's what u see. PSG match is just equivalent to inter Milan vs Juventus. Just like PSG, inter Milan had total dominance in the match both in possession and in attempt but couldn't net a single goal through out the two halves.
PSG made dreadful attempts which were good enough to have given them a goal but couldn't, because it wasn't a good day for them.

Losing with a 2-0 result is not a good result for PSG against any team with these players they have, I think PSG lost this game mostly because they lost the champions league and they don't have a good atmosphere in their team after that game also people and the fans are still unhappy about the performance of players like Messi, if they don't change this situation I think after Messi more stars will leave PSG at the end of this season.

Reims' home record has been one of the best so far and looks like it should be broken after losing to Marseille. Actually, Reims played quite well and took the lead first, but the advantage did not last long because Marseille immediately looked for gaps in the Reims defense so that the opportunities that were created were successfully converted into a return advantage for Marseille. I thought in the second half Reims could have leveled the score, but apparently it didn't go well and they had to put up with a defeat at home to Marseille. Marseille is 7 points away from PSG and as we know PSG has recently started having trouble getting consistent wins, this could be a good opportunity for Marseille to continue to cut the distance from PSG.
yes, Reims still dominated the game, but Marseille did better with the chances they got. a fairly balanced match for the two, even though it had to end with a Marseille win.
I was expecting the second half to see a few more goals, but it turned out that both teams played well enough and didn't allow any mistakes. Sanchez became a savior for Marseille. 2 goals that saved Marseille from defeat and also reduced the point gap with PSG. although it will be quite difficult to catch up with him.

In the other important match of the day, Reims were defeated after a long break. Their coach has really achieved a great success. The fact that they made it this far without being defeated was a great success despite the squad they had. Although reims played better in the match, they lost the match. It's a bit sad for them. Reims even scored the first goal but Marseille quickly responded with 2 goals. The match ended with goals in the first half. In the week when PSG lost, Marseille won and the points difference between them dropped to 7.

Even though PSG will still be safe in the standings, the defeat at home to Rennes is very difficult for the players and fans alike to accept. PSG should have won but their game could not develop which made 2 goals from Rennes last until the final minutes of the match. I think it's time for PSG to start overhauling their players in the summer, they need to bring in a pure striker as well as a creative midfielder to create more chances and to be able to score goals more easily.
If their fans are not happy with Ligue 1 title because PSG won too many titles in their domestic league in the past 10 years, win one or few more matches in this season won't make them happier.

However, if their fans bet on PSG to win and lose money with PSG loses, they surely will be angry against PSG players. What will they possibly do when they are angry? They will request PSG boss to fire Galiter first and want the club to buy more new star players. This summer can be a very chaotic summer transfer for PSG when they will have to deal with future of many star players from Mbappe to Messi, Ramos and even more.

I am not sure how their boss will have better sport development strategies for PSG in coming years. If they can change themselves by lesson from 10 failed years in Champions League, they will win it in future but I am very doubtful that it will happen soon.

Man I hate adding to all the PSG posts here but of all the upsets I was looking at over the weekend, I completely overlooked PSG -- who before last night didn't lose at home for how long now?

I used to play CB in my school days, for some weird reason our coach didn't think my height disadvantage (I was very short even then) was a problem.

He must be a spirit animal for Galtier, playing a guy only 1.5 inches taller than me in the heart of defence. What do you expect a nervous noob to do? Make mistakes.

in the champions league, PSG is the favorite team to win, but seeing the quality of their performance in the last few matches, I doubt they will be able to win the champions league, the thing that really doesn't make sense to me is because they were beaten by Rennes twice this year just. that means rennes is a stronger team than PSG, totally unexpected.
Buddy, PSG is not in CL anymore, Bayern kicked them out two weeks ago.

Marseille team took advantage of psg loss today and they closed the gap between them and paris team to seven points thanks to their win against Reims and in the process they stoped Reims unbeaten streak that lasted 19 games very impressive performance from alexis sanchez who scored two goals and gave marseille team three precious points.
Sanchez performed so well in marseille. There are still 7 points remaining to be reached by marseille to be able to chase PSG. The only problem is the remaining matches become even less and less. There are still around 10 matches remaining at this moment. It's worth 30 points in total if marseilla will able to win all of the remaining matches.Marseille can take advantage of some important matches that will be faced by PSG. As you can see that if PSG is still having some matches against lens, lyon, lorient. These teams can be considered strong teams in league 1.
It may give possibility for marseille to cut the gap become even shorter caused by those teams may make PSG so difficult to take full points. I would like to see that if we have a new winner in league 1. That's boring to see that if it's PSG, PSG, and PSG again that was winning the league.  Cheesy

It is not easy for psg in the Champions league. The champions league is the toughest league you can think  of. PSG is leading the French league because their are no strong teams that can challenge PSG.
The champions has many strong teams competing to get the championship.
in the champions league, PSG is the favorite team to win, but seeing the quality of their performance in the last few matches, I doubt they will be able to win the champions league, the thing that really doesn't make sense to me is because they were beaten by Rennes twice this year just. that means rennes is a stronger team than PSG, totally unexpected.
Like a symphony of shattered dreams, PSG's recent games have hit a somber note, with Rennes delivering the encore of defeat. Two losses in a year, no less! Yet, the plot thickens: Bayern Munich had the last laugh in the Champions League, leaving PSG to chase the Ligue 1 title alone. As the clock ticks down, a crescendo of focus and determination must rise to clinch the championship.

In the spotlight, Messi and Mbappé couldn't bring a victory - their body language is clearly showing that things are not good at PSG. However, we can expect good changes in the coming days because the management is also not happy with the team's performance. But hey, no matter what, they will always still earn Ligue 1. Better than nothing

Imho, Marseille lost its chance for the title when PSG beat them few weeks ago. If Tavares scored from those early chances we would have looked at very diffeent game imho and now Marseille would be just 1 point behind them. As a matter of fact, they would maybe even be ahead of them as that win would boost their confidence so they wouldn't so easily lose points like vs Strasbourg last week.

I watched the Reims vs Marseille game last night and honestly they should be happy if they finish 2nd as they are not ready yet to seriously endanger PSG as they are even more incosistent than them. Sure, they beat Reims that is a very tough team to beat (19 games withour loss before Marseiile game) but they had a lot of luck to win 3 points last night.

Lens had a very impressive game against Angers home and destroyed them. They were solid in terms of passing and shots both. Angers couldn't even resist them much. Lens need to maintain an effort similar to this level if they want to keep their claim for a spot in the Champions League. They need to finish at the second spot if they want to join the group stage directly of course.
This season lens performance is very interesting. There was a time they were at first position that they couldn't maintain  to remain to lead. If lens can maintain the second position to get a spot in the Champions league it will be achievement this season.
It was so easy for lens to beat anger.
There is no doubt about Lens done impressive job in this season while they are still having strong grip at third spot which is giving all details about their performance in this season even right now Monaco, Rennes and Lille are also fighting hard for the better spot and replace them, but their consistency is amazing which is allowing them for having better place now after break we will have challenging match as Lens is going to face Rennes in away match, but surely this is going to be good match for the both teams.

Mostly were feeling in early rounds they could be down in next half of this season but their consistent performance and quality is giving good results which are surely important for the staying into top teams hopefully they will be able to stay at this level until end of this season which could be impressive and good reward for their hard work.
