Wijnaldum rolls up, above
PSG had again managed to enter the box, with Verratti who failed to find the fault and put back on the Dutchman in withdrawal.
Di Maria can’t adjust his right center
It’s a shame, there were finally spaces in the Brest defense, but the center escapes Icardi.
Herrera is the first player warned today
It makes sense, with a trip to stop a counterattack. Only Busquets escapes yellow on this.
The Breton defense suffers less
And we have the impression that the Parisian attack purrs more (usually there is a goal 30 seconds after we say that, our apologies to the Brest supporters if this is the case).
PSG dominate this first quarter of an hour, but the stoppage of Donnarumma is the main fact
A rather pleasant start to the game. We feel that PSG is not missing much to make the difference, but also that Brest is close to overflowing the opposing defense with each counter.
Donnarumma still attentive on the corner
Strange situation, with a deflection of the head at the near post and the ball going very high. The Italian goalkeeper deflects on his bar.
MONSTROUS STOP BY DONNARUMMA!
Kimpembe has a hole and the ball arrives at Cardona, full axis in the area. The Brest striker lights up at ground level, but the Italian goes very quickly to the ground and deflects the shot.
Brest has room against
This is often the hope for the opponents of PSG: the wide spaces left by the Parisians. And Brest knows how to explode forward.
Entry offensive bets
PSG is obviously the favorite, and assumes. Especially since the Brestois are unable to tighten the bolts enough in defense.
PSG plays the short corner
Mbappé crosses for Wijnaldum, who takes the lead but fails to frame.
Chardonnet unscrews his release
Di Maria’s center was in and it would have been more detrimental than this conceded corner.
Let’s go !
Kick off given by PSG.
Both teams enter the field
It is necessarily empty with the gauge, but Phil Collins resonates in the Parc des Princes.
First victory of the year for Paris?
The first Ligue 1 match of 2022 ended in a draw against OL (1-1)
The composition of Brest
Bizot – Pierre-Gabriel, Chardonnet, Hérelle, Duverne – Faivre, Agoumé, Magnetti, Honorat – Le Douaron, Cardona
The composition of PSG
In the absence of Navas, Donnarumma starts in the cages. In front, without Messi or Neymar, it will be a Di Maria-Icardi-Mbappé trio.
Donnarumma – Kehrer, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Nuno Mendes -Herrera, Verratti, Wijnaldum – Di Maria, Icardi, Mbappé.

No Messi, Neymar, or… Navas
As expected, neither Lionel Messi, nor Neymar, nor the players participating in the CAN are in the PSG group for this match. The surprise absence is that of Keylor Navas, who tested positive for Covid-19 after being announced present at first.
