Lionel Messi has not yet returned to Paris after going to Argentina after winning the World Cup. Neymar did not get a chance to play due to a red card in the previous match.
PSG lost their first match of the year without two attacking stars. Lyon beat Kylian Mbappe 3-1 to move into second place in Ligue A. The win saw the Lance close the gap on the points table with the reigning champions. At the end of 17 matches, PSG's points are 44, Lance's 40.
PSG came into the game on a 25-game unbeaten run at the Bolaiert Dellis Stadium. Christophe Gaultier's team scored in the opponent's field in the fifth minute of the game.
Gianluigi Donnarumma couldn't counterattack and Mislav Frankovski found the net. The Polish winger easily sent the ball into the net. But three minutes later, PSG repaid that goal.
This is also due to the goalkeeper not being able to fully control the ball. Lance goalkeeper Bryce Samba touches Nardi Mukiel with the ball. Ugo Ekiti put the ball into the net before the goalkeeper took full control.
The hosts went ahead again in the 28th minute. Lois Openda received the ball in the D box and sent the ball under the body of the onrushing Donnarumma into the net. Lance went into the break leading 2-1 in the first half.
PSG will turn around by scoring their third goal in the second half. PSG goalkeeper could not resist Alexis-Claude-Maurice's strong shot in the 47th minute.
In the last match, Mbappe won PSG by scoring in the 96th minute. However, in this match, he received little help from the midfield, and only a few of them were able to show themselves.
A shot in the 60th minute was the only chance, but the Lance goalkeeper saved it. Pablo Sarabia headed a chance after 15 minutes. But due to the determination of goalkeeper Lance, PSG was denied a goal in this journey. In the end, they had to leave the field after losing 3-1.
