Even with the fresh memory of their elimination in the last 16 of the Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain returned this Saturday to sign a mediocre game and had to be saved by Kylian Mbappé, who at the time and with the assistance of Argentinian Lionel Messi, made it 1-2 to mask his side’s problems with a win over Brest.

It was the 300th pass-goal at club level for the 35-year-old from Rosario (he has accumulated 353 at all levels and it is the highest in history), which allowed the ‘Turtle’ first in a furious counter-attack in which the PSG arrived in just three touches from zone to zone.

Thus passes, in any case, the second chance of the ‘Pulce’ to convert the 800th goal of his professional career. The first was last Wednesday against Bayern Munich, who knocked them out of the Champions League for the second consecutive season in the round of 16.
