After an adaptation period, Lionel Messi has finally started playing like in the old times. Recently, he has made a big contribution to the team with his goals and assists in not only in the Ligue 1 but also in the Champions League. This is really important for the team because they are aiming the Champions League title at the same time also. And they are already the biggest candidate to win the Ligue 1 title by a huge gap.
But I just still can't accept Messi taking over the penalty kick in the UCL yesterday, even though if it was given to Mbappe I think it would be even better because it was a good chance for Mbappe to score a hat-trick. Yesterday, we knew PSG won against Monaco 2-0 and the first goal was scored from a penalty kick and it was Mbappe who took the shot. I just don't understand why when a player has a great chance to score a hat-trick but doesn't get support from a star player like Messi, I would prefer Messi to support Mbappe as a young potential player and give Mbappe a penalty kick in yesterday's UCL match against Brugge.
