(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Lee Eui-jin = ‘Star Corps’ Paris Saint-Germain (PSG, France) defeated Juventus (Italy) and posted their first victory in the 2022-2023 UEFA Champions League group stage.
PSG defeated Juventus 2-1 thanks to a multi-goal from Kylian Mbappe in the first leg of the 2022-2023 UCL group stage match held at the Parc des Princes in Paris, France on the 7th (Korean time).
Mbappe scored the first goal five minutes into the game.
Brazilian soccer star Neymar, who was rumored to be in conflict, raised the ball from behind the penalty area and made an exquisite pass to Mbappe, who jumped into the penalty area, and Mbappe shook the net with a non-stop shot.

Mbappe, who dismissed rumors of a quarrel with Neymar at a press conference before the match, shared the joy with his teammates, including Neymar, who ran following the goal.
Juventus, who was being dragged, counterattacked with a high RBI header from Juan Quadrado in the 19th minute of the first half, but goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma blew his body to the save.
In the 22nd minute of the first half, Mbappe came out once more. Mbappe, who entered the penalty area by exchanging 2-1 passes with Ashraf Hakimi, pierced the lower corner of the goal with a quick one-beat shot to complete the multi-goal.
Juventus also scored a goal in the eighth minute of the second half. After a corner kick, Weston McKenney finished the cross from the left flank with a header.
Another three minutes later, Juventus’ Doosan Vlahovic opened a cross from the right flank with a menacing header, but PSG’s keeper Donnarumma blew him away this time.

Afterwards, the star triangle of Neymar-Lionel Messi-Mbappe led the attack until the last minute of the match, creating a threatening scene, but neither team might score an additional goal.
PSG (3 points) placed 2nd in Group 2 behind Benfica (Portugal) who beat Maccabi Haifa (Israel) 2-0 in goal difference, and Juventus were one step down to 3rd place.
Manchester City (herefollowing, Manchester City, England) of Group G defeated Sevilla (Spain) 4-0 at the Ramon Sanchez Pisjuan Stadium, Spain, with a multi-goal from ‘monster goalkeeper’ Elling Halan.
Manchester City dominated the lead in the 20th minute when Halan finished a cross from Kevin De Bruyne who penetrated the right side of the penalty area.
In the 13th minute of the second half, Phil Foden put a shot in front of the defense in front of the penalty spot and the shot was sucked into the corner of the post.

For the third goal, Foden and Halan, who had already tasted the goal, collaborated. In the 22nd minute of the second half, Foden’s shot on the counter-attack bounced off the goalkeeper’s save, and Halan rushed into the door and kicked it in.
Just before the end of the game, a wedge goal was scored. Juan Cancelo’s cross from the right side of the penalty area was crossed by Hubeng Dias in front of the goal, turning the net.
Manchester City climbed to the top of the group table with three points.
In Group F, the defending champions Real Madrid (Spain) defeated Celtic (Scotland) 3-0, signaling a smooth start.
Vinicius Junior and Luka Modric scored consecutive goals in the 11th and 15th minutes of the second half, respectively, and Eden Hazard, who had been sluggish in the 32nd minute of the second half, scored a welcome goal.

Chelsea (England) lost 1-0 to Dynamo Zagreb (Croatia), which was considered relatively weak, and placed bottom in Group E.

AC Milan (Italy) in Group E drew 1-1 with Salzburg (Austria).
