Paris Saint Germain did not dispute anything in the French Ligue 1, conclusive in their visit this Sunday against Olympique Marseille, which they overcame in the first half, with three goals and the dismissal of Harit, to remain alone at the top of the classification again, also benefits from the defeat of Monaco.
A show of authority, for punch, for ambition, for the way in which they approach the rivalry and even more for the score, to lead by three points on second place Monaco and shoot the difference up to six on third place of the team of Marseille , which was passed in just 20 minutes, due to an action against Marquinhos, and scored a goal before half time, with the mistake of Belardi and Gero Rulli.
It all started in the 7th minute when Joao Neves took advantage of a clearance by the Argentine goalkeeper to break the duel level and pull out the winner, after play on the left wing between Barcola and Nuno Mendes. Pure speed.
Not only was the 0-1 quick, but also the expression on the field of both teams, where the game was transferred to the local territory, where PSG felt restless and more shocked. There he ended up resolving the commitment.
After Harit was sent off, for the iron on Marquinhos at the height of the stomach, which was always in doubt whether or not it was enough for a red card, 0-2 was the end for the Marseille team, when Belardi gave the ball away to Rulli when the goalkeeper was already in another place, anticipating the destination of the pass from the left wing. The ball went into the net, without any pressure from anyone around him, with a mistake that definitely condemned him.
In the 40th minute, Bradley Barcola continued his impressive season with a score of 0-3. The pass goes to Dembele. The left winger just needs to finish the goal. His eighth goal in twelve games this season, while waiting two weeks before an important Champions League match against Atlético de Madrid at the Parque de los Príncipes.
With the match ending quickly, the second half was a step towards PSG’s twenty-fifth victory in its last 31 games against Marseille. He only lost two. And he tied four. More than describing the difference that exists today between the Parisian team and the Marseille team, even if it has been greatly strengthened this summer, with Adrien Rabiot, Mason Greenwood or Wahi. Still not enough.
