Revel 0-5 PSG
Today in the match of the Coupe de France, PSG's players shows a great dominance. The opposition is naturally quite weak compared to PSG. So I thought Luis Enrique might give his second line players a chance in this match. But he didn't do that. PSG players dominated from the start of the match.
PSG players had 78% of the ball possession in the first half. They managed to make a total of 15 shots, out of which 7 were on target. And the important thing is that PSG team lead by 4-0 goals in the first half. And Mbappe scored another goal at the beginning of the second half. Mbappe scored the goal from Marco Asensio's pass. Mbappe has already scored three goals. Asensio has one goal and two assists. Carlos Soler had two assists. PSG won today's match by 7/8 goals, but it is not surprising.
It was a painful result for Revel. PSG scored exactly nine goals and there were just as many missed opportunities. He struggled from the start of the PSG match until the final whistle. It wouldn't have happened if Mbappe didn't score a hattrick in this match and he did it, I had no doubt about him, we are now used to him scoring hattricks in such matches.
PSG does not show mercy against such easy opponents, for some reason they always achieve such different results.
One part of me is surprised and another part of me is not. As I have said so many times, Ligue 1 is like a picnic for PSG. Ligue 1 is the highest level of the football league in France and Revel is a team which is not even in the Ligue 1. They are not even in the 2nd tier of the football league in France so Revel definitely did not stand a chance against PSG.
But as I have said before, one part of me was surprised due to the margin of victory. What I don't understand is why they are playing some of the main team players, to be honest. The schedules are tough these days and they should be given rest. Mbappe was brought out to play the game as well.
