The Parisians get the win against Dijon
Paris Saint-Germain were victorious in Dijon in matchday 27 of Ligue 1 (0-4). Take a look at how it happened!
After a week off, the Parisians were back in league action with a trip to Bourgogne to face the side bottom of the table. With numerous players missing Mauricio Pochettino changed his line up with the Draxler-Kean-Mbappé trio in the attacking positions with Rafinha in the centre of midfield.
And we didn't have to wait long to see how the game was going: an attack against defence with a Parisian side pushing forward against a low defensive block. But the French champions came out determined with Julian Draxler and Kylian Mbappé combining (4') causing havoc in the DFCO defence. And it was Moise Kean who broke the deadlock! After a move orchestrated by Kylian Mbappé and played in by Abdou Diallo the Italian striker took a touch and finished well (0-1, 7'), scoring his fourth goal in his last five games.
Mauricio Pochettino's men then made their job a lot easier. Straight after the key was to keep the pressure on to finish the game off quickly! The Parisians stayed focused and carried on putting pressure on their opposition. It was shown as Kylian Mbappé doubled the lead from the penalty spot (0-2, 32'), to put him further ahead in the top goalscorers table.
The club from the capital created more chances on Anthony Racioppi's goal as shown by offside goals from Julian Draxler (37', 74'). But it was Kylian Mbappé once more after being found by Rafinha who curled a left footed effort in to finish of a beautiful move (0-3, 50').
In a one way encounter the Rouge et Bleu didn't give their opponents anything. They then once more pushed the pace and Danilo Pereira hammered his header home from a corner for the fourth (0-4, 82e).
The game was then controlled by the Parisiens until the end of the game and enabled Paris Saint-Germain to carry on pushing in the race for the top of the table. A good reaction after the game against Monaco and ahead of two away games in Bordeaux on Wednesday in Ligue 1 and Brest next Saturday in the Coupe de France.
