Champions League

While leading the break, PSG had to concede a draw in Naples (1-1), this Tuesday in the Champions League. Which leaves him in the third place of his group.
The match: 1-1
Under the threat of premature elimination, at the halfway point, PSG were warned by going to the south of Italy: there was no question of returning empty-handed from Naples, otherwise the round of 16 of the Champions League may escape him for the first time in the QSI era. On arrival, his draw in Naples (1-1) probably satisfies only half. 1) Because with the defeat of Liverpool in Belgrade against the Red Star Belgrade (0-2), Paris could have tipped in the lead if successful. 2) Because the Parisians led in this meeting and, even caught up in the score, they still had the opportunity to win. Instead, they stay in third place in Group C, one point behind Napoli and the Reds.
The first few minutes immediately set the tone. Paris did not want to be dictated his conduct, as in the first leg (2-2). So he took the game on his own. With attackers involved, both in construction and recovery, and especially much more aggressiveness than the Parc des Princes, Thomas Tuchel players have managed a first half-hour encouraging. Who could have been rewarded if the hit of Mbappé had found the frame (23e). Well taken by Koulibaly, the candidate for the Ballon d'Or France Football had shown himself discreet when, just before half-time, he unlocked the situation by offering the opening score to Bernat, arrived thrown in the six meters and scorer in disequilibrium (45 + 2).
Pervaded at the break, the Neapolitans returned with much better intentions. If they had not framed the least shot in the first period (0/7), they quickly caught up, forcing Buffon to two successive interventions (51 and 52), before rescues of Kehrer (53) and Thiago Silva ( 54th). The storm was raging in a San Paolo rumbling, but Paris was good. At least, he believed it. Until this mistake of his captain led to a penalty converted by Insigne (63). From then on, the match was balanced. PSG could have won if Mbappé was more adroit (85th). But he stayed there. At once rebadured and frustrated.
The facts: an indisputable penalty and a forgotten
In the midst of Neapolitan domination, Thiago Silva, until then irreproachable, was guilty of a largely avoidable mistake and contributed to the equalization of Napoli. In his area, the Brazilian missed an innocuous control, which took advantage of Callejon, faster to recover the ball than Buffon. Mr. Kuipers had no choice but to whistle a penalty. A little later (72 '), the Dutch referee should have done the same for a fairly obvious foul of Maksimovic on Bernat. An oversight that is expensive for the PSG in the end.

Paris still have not lost to Napoli in European competitions (1 win, 2-0 in the UEFA Cup in 1992, and 3 draws).
