U19s defeat Red Star Belgrade
L’équipe U19 du Paris Saint-Germain s’est imposée 2-1 face à son homologue de l’Étoile Rouge Belgrade, ce mercredi au Stade Georges Lefèvre de Saint-Germain-en-Laye, à l’occasion de la 2e journée d’UEFA Youth League.
Beaten 5-2 in their opening match away to Liverpool, Les Titis were looking to bounce back at home. And they burst out of the blocks, opening the scoring inside the opening ten minute. Kouassi's header was saved by the Red Star 'keeper, but Kapo was on hand to knock home the rebound (1-0, 8'). The Serbian side came back into the game and equalised just before half-time when Joveljic took advantage of a mistake at the back to score into an empty net (1-1, 45+1').
After the break, Paris petiently looked to break down their opponents. Kalimuendo saw his effort saved by Gordic (69') before Yaisien won back possession in the box and crossed for Fressange to score from close range (2-1, 80').
