Champions League: RB Leipzig beat Paris Saint-Germain

The game had not picked up speed when Dayot Upamecano made a serious mistake in the preparation game. The central RB missed the lurking Moise Kean, who hit di María, and the winger finished off Gulacsi in the left corner (6th).

A little later it was again Upamecano who acted discontent. After a shot from Kean, the ball bounced off his hand, resulting in a penalty. Gulacsi had suspected that Sagittarius di Maria would choose the correct corner: he stopped (16.). As a result, too, the Leipzig offensive did not find the means against the greatly weakened guests. PSG missed Neymar and Kilian Mbappé through injury, as well as the two national players Julian Draxler and Thilo Kehrer.

Offside, offside, EQ

In Leipzig’s defense inadequacies accumulated. After a long pass from Sarabia, Di María ran only towards the RB Gulacsi goalkeeper and passed him, but the Argentine was previously offside. A little later, Nordi Mukiele also made a bad pass. Kean reacted faster after Sarabia’s shot and pushed the ball towards the goal. However, this time the two PSG players, Kean and Sarabia, were sidelined.

Before the break, Leipzig’s Nkunku scored the flattering tie (40th). After Angeliño put him on the ground, the deflected shot reached the left corner from just under 20 meters. The second half also started in a rough way: Presner Kimbembe took the ball with his right arm, for which the referee again decided a hand penalty. Forsberg’s shot in the left corner was too placed for Keylor Navas (56th). Leipzig benefited from the fact that Idrissa Gueye saw yellow-red for a foul on Amadou Haidara and subsequently the guests were unable to create chances. Shortly before the end of the game, Kimpembe turned yellow-red after a foul on Yussuf Poulsen.

Leipzig and PSG had not started this Champions League season optimally, both having lost their first leg against Manchester United. The great English club leads the group H table after three games. United had surprisingly lost their game to Turkish champion Basaksehir 1: 2 (1: 2) earlier in the night. The victory against PSG gave the Leipzigers a good starting point to reach the knockout phase. Behind the Bundesliga club with six points, they are followed by PSG and Basaksehir with three each.

Thanks to the third victory in the third game, FC Barcelona continues to lead Group G. Against Dynamo Kiev it was Lionel Messi who gave the Spanish an early penalty with a penalty (5th). Central defender Gerard Piqué went ahead with an attack in the second half and headed closely (65th). Viktor Tsygankov scored the next goal (75th). Barcelona’s last man, ter Stegen, shone with several great opportunities and took the victory.

Chelsea FC received two penalties, converted by German international Timo Werner (10.41 minutes). Before the break, Dalbert also saw a yellow-red from German referee Felix Zwayer, so the match was decided early. Another goal for the Blues was scored by Tammy Abraham (51).
