After the rousing debut in Ligue 1 with a perfect score (three out of three), this does not seem to be PSG’s night. The fact is that Messi’s team receives Monaco for the fourth round of the French championship and things have not started well.
The Monegasque team scored after 20 minutes taking advantage of a counterattack, as indicated by the manuals. The action began in the center, where Messi lost the ball after a compromised tackle by Verratti. The visit moved quickly and it all ended with a left cross from German Kevin Volland who beat Donnarumma.
Towards the end of the first phase, Mbappe and Messi finally managed to connect. The French unload for Leo and slip into the Monaco defenders; the Argentine took advantage of the distraction and exploited the gap left by the defense. Shooting with the crossbar in the background and nothing to do for the Nübel goalkeeper who heard the noise of the stick and the ball that traveled the whole area to stop at the feet of the brave 7 of PSG with the goal in his mercy. But, incredibly, Kylian also broke the stick and so the Monk was saved.
