The first half of match was showing about how difficult PSG to make attack against bayern. Bayern was dominating almost in all of time. PSG has horrible defenders. Bayern munchen was always doing so many pressures to the PSG even PSG can do nothing.
PSG was not able to follow the rythm that already made by bayern. Bayern has been dominating the ball possession as well as the total shots on target too. Bayern has so many golden chances that already missed by its players.
PSG was playing so bad in the last match against bayern.
Totally agreed PSG are fully under-pressure against Bayern they can't even score a signal goal against them while they have world number one attacking trio like Messi ,Neymar, mbappe, and the funny thing is that Bayern didn't have his main goalkeeper Manuel nauer but still they can't score. I am totally unhappy with PSG performance because it's third consecutive lose for them, first they lose against Marseille then Monaco and now against Bayern. I think al-khalifa should think about making some changes in club especially the manager who can't even score a single in the presence of best attacking trio in his squad, I can't expect such kind of bad performance from PSG, hope after sacking Christophe Galtier the second leg result will be different
This is a matter of strategy and formation that Galtier implemented in PSG's match against Bayern. Galtier tried to implement a 4-4-2 formation, pairing Messi and Neymar as the spearhead. two pivots and two attack bracelets, the rest are defenders.
IMO, the scenario that Galtier executed with the pattern of play relied on counterattacks. but unfortunately, the pattern that Galtier applied did not work effectively "in the first half" the transition between the players was too slow, plus several defenders made mistakes, one of which was Hakimi. and as we saw, PSG really struggled when trying to build an attack.
In half two, Galtier pulled on Carlos Soler, playing Mbappe aiming to change his starting formation. and yes, quite effective, the attacks that PSG built were more threatening than in the first half. Mbappe scored two goals, unfortunately it had to be annulled due to offside and VAR.
Overall, I'd say it's purely Galtier's fault in his implementation of the strategy. maybe the story would have been different if PSG had played at full strength from the start. next, PSG will play at home to Bayern and we'll see how they will give us an interesting spectacle.
