Los dos súper
cracks del PSG, que prosigue con su escalada en la Ligue 1, se quedaron sin
marcar pero sembraron el pánico en la defensa del Reims, que cedió al doblete
del delantero argentino.
El Paris
Saint-Germain prosigue con su escalada en la Ligue 1 y este domingo, en la 5ª
jornada del campeonato francés, sumó su tercera victoria consecutiva al
imponerse con autoridad a un Stade Reims en puestos de descenso. La victoria
del equipo de Tuchel (0-2) se antoja corta a tenor de las ocasiones creadas en
una primera mitad en la que Neymar Jr. y Kylian Mbappé, pese a no marcar,
estuvieron estelares. El PSG se llevó los tres puntos merced a un doblete de
Mauro Icardi, que aprovechó sendas asistencias de Mbappé.
No tardó el PSG
en tomar ventaja en el marcador. En el minuto 9, el delantero argentino culminó
una espectacular acción personal de Mbappé, que mostró una excelente sintonía
en el terreno de juego con Neymar Jr. Ambos hicieron gala de una velocidad y
desborde endiablados, al igual de Ángel Di María.
Los de Thomas
Tuchel apabullaron al Reims en la primera media hora de juego con varias
ocasiones claras de gol, pero el meta Rajkovic se encargó de abortarlas con
acierto. Al borde del descanso, Neymar Jr. estuvo a punto de anotar después de
sortear a todos los defensas que salieron a su paso, pero su disparo cruzado,
merecedor de gol, se marchó rozando el poste. La colosal exhibición atacante
del PSG en el primer tiempo se tradujo en un exiguo 0-1 pese a que los
parisinos hicieron méritos para golear.
Tortazo sin
castigo de El Bilal a Neymar Jr.
Tras el descanso,
el PSG tuvo algunos problemas para abrir la defensa del Reims, quejugó con
mayor intensidad. El revolucionado El Bilal se jugó la tarjeta roja tras propinar
un tortazo a Neymar Jr. en el minuto 55, pero el VAR no intervino ante el
monumental enfado del crack brasileño, que no encuentra partido en el que algún
rival no le busque las cosquillas, como sucedió recientemente con Álvaro
González (Marsella).
En el 61’, el
Reims rozó el empate con un disparo al poste de Boulaye Dia, que había entrada
al campo tres minutos antes en sustitución de Anastasios Donis. Sin embargo,
segundos después, Icardi volvió a golpear a los locales al rematar en boca de
gol un servicio de Mbappé. El VAR revisó la jugada por un posible fuera del
argentino, pero el tanto acabó subiendo al marcador.
En los instantes
finales, Mbappé, Neymar Jr. y Sarabia, por dos veces, gozaron de ocasiones para
terminar de agrandar el inapelable triunfo de un PSG en el que tanto el astro
brasileño como el francés brillaron con luz propia. Solo les faltó la
recompensa del gol.
