With home-field advantage, PSG showed a superior performance against AC Milan and collected 3 points relatively easily.
PSG entered this match with enormous pressure. They need a victory to keep their hopes of continuing in the group of death alive, where Newcastle and Dortmund are also present. The home team’s determination was concretized with a goal in the 32nd minute by Kylian Mbappe.
It was Mbappe’s familiar cut inside from the left wing. However, contrary to his familiar curling shots, he chose to shoot low towards the near corner. That shot was surprising and caused the opposing goalkeeper to stand still.
AC Milan does not have too many attack options at the Parc des Princes. When the strikers on the attack have not scored, they always face sharp counterattacks from PSG.
At the beginning of the second half, Randal Kolo Muani increased the score to 2-0 and left AC Milan with almost no chance to get a point.
AC Milan tried to rise up in the last minutes.
However, what they received was the third goal in the 89th minute. Korean striker Lee Kang In was the one who put his name on the scoreboard with a low shot in a comfortable position. The white shirt defenders clearly lost focus in this defeat.
3-0 is the final score of this match.
Rafael Leao and his teammates only have 2 points after 3 matches. Meanwhile, PSG rose to the top with 6 points.
