After a first half in which both were able to score but PSG failed to open the scoring against Lyon, the goals came in the second half.
Lionel Messi was the one who had the most chances to score, but between the visiting goalkeeper and the crossbar prevented him from doing so. The goalkeeper in a clear combination with Neymar, between the post and the crossbar in a free kick with his stamp.
Lucas Paqueta in an excellent team move and a deep pass from Ekami opened the scoring in the 54th minute. PSG were in a state of disarray and were unable to find the target in the final meters. Messi, distanced from his teammates, barely receives a ball and is intercepted.
De Maria took advantage of his speed to beat his marker, but his crosses were not accurate.
Then, at 63', just nine minutes after the away goal, Neymar Jr, while struggling with Gusto, falls inside the area and the referee calls a penalty that Neymar easily converts into a goal.
From that moment on, the match became a continuous advance of PSG and the counter-attacking action of Lyon.
In this part of the match the biggest novelty is the departure of Messi (something unusual for the Argentine player) and the entry of Hakimi in his place. Something that did not go down too well with the Argentine according to his gesture.
Then, in the last play of the match, Mbappé put in a cross that Icardi, who was just inside the box, connected with to convert and crown PSG's victory.
Después de un primer tiempo en el que ambos pudieron convertir sin lograr que el PSG abriera el marcador ante el Lyon los goles vinieron en la segunda parte.
Lionel Messi fue el que más chances de gol tuvo, pero entre el arquero visitante y el travesaño se lo impidieron. El arquero en una combinación clara con Neymar, entre el palo y el travesaño en un tiro libre con su sello.
Lucas Paquetá en una excelente maniobra grupal y un pase en profundidad de Ekami abrió el marcador a los 54'. Desconcierto en el PSG que no logra acertar en los metros finales. Messi distanciado de sus compañeros apenas recibe un balón es interceptado.
De Maria aprovecha su velocidad para superar a su marcador pero los centros no son precisos.
Hasta que a los 63', apenas habian pasado nueve minutos del gol visitante, Neymar Jr forcejeando con Gusto cae dentro del area y el arbitro cobra penal que Neymar transforma en gol sin problemas.
A partir de ese momento el partido se transforma en un continuo avance del PSG y la accion de contragolpe del Lyon.
En este tramo del partido la mayor novedad es la salida de Messi (algo inusual en el jugador argentino) y la entrada de Hakimi en su lugar. Algo que no le cayó demasiado bien al argentino según su gesto.
Hasta que en la última jugada del partido Mbappé lanza un centro que conecta Icardi ingresado hacia poco para convertir y coronar la victoria del PSG.
