He Paris Saint Germain (PSG) today they lost 0-2 at home to Rennes on matchday 28 of French football, a setback that, although it does not threaten their leadership, raises doubts regarding the future of their expensive squad.
In it Princes Park, the rojiazules with the stars Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappé on the field might not decipher the scheme proposed by the DT Bruno Génésio, who celebrated the goals of Karl Toko Ekambi, before the break, and of Arnaud Kalimuendo just started the second half following a defensive error.
A part of the Parisian fans puffed Messi on the club’s return home, 11 days following a new disappointment in the Champions League, eliminated by Bayern Munich in the round of 16.
Connoisseurs attribute the failure in the Champions League, and that it happens year following year, to an alleged vision in the Qatari era of hiring big stars, instead of forging a team, for which they demand a “cleaning up” with Mbappé as a guide of the future squad.
Despite the defeat, PSG remains comfortable at the top of Ligue 1 with 66 points, and except for a major surprise, they should have no problems winning their eleventh crown in France, breaking the tie with the most titles with the rundown Saint -Etienne.
Rennes achieved a very important victory in its aspirations to play European tournaments next season, reaching 50 units that place it fifth, behind its victims and Lens (57), Olympique de Marseille (56) and Monaco (54 ).
Earlier, Monaco defeated Ajaccio 2-0, Strasbourg defeated Auxerre with the same scoreboard and Montpellier defeated Clermont 2-1, while Nice-Lorient (1-1) and Troyes-Stade Brestois (2-2) ended in a tie.
Tonight, at the close of date 28, of the 38 of Ligue1, Marseille will try to recover the sub-leadership in their visit to the difficult Reims.
