Paris Saint-Germain took home all three points from its UEFA Champions League home group stage fixture against Juventus, as it clinched a 2-1 victory on matchday one. PSG received a double from Kylian Mbappe on the day.
From PSG manager Christophe Galtier’s standpoint, it was not a flawless performance from his side against Juventus. For one, as he touched on after the match (via PSG TV), the reigning Ligue 1 champions simply gave away goal-scoring opportunities to Juventus in the contest.
“We gave chances away, our defenders were heroic in the final meters of the pitch to prevent us from conceding a second goal,” Galtier said. “I think that on the whole, the win was deserved.”
Juventus tallied 13 total shots against the Ligue 1 powerhouse, with 10 of them coming inside the box. Even as the likes of Dusan Vlahovic and Filip Kostic had key goal-scoring opportunities in the match, the Serie A side settled for the mere one goal scored.
For now, PSG will return to Champions League action next week with an away group stage fixture against Israeli side Maccabi Haifa.
The big problem with PSG is Mbaphe if they don’t tell him it’s not his team there is no Champion league he was selfish against Juventus Neymar he was alone he decided to balloon the ball what a stupid decision
Mbappe need to stop his bull messi can help you give him the ball please
