A draw for the U19
The Paris Saint-Germain U19 side were held to a scoreless home draw by Napoli on Matchday 3 of the UEFA Youth League.
With three points after the opening two games in Group C, the U19s were looking to cement their second place in the standings, under the gaze of Paris Saint-Germain legend Pedro Pauleta. Les Rouge et Bleu dominated the opening exchanges against a defensive Napoli outfit and D'Andrea needed two attempts to tame Coulibaly's shot (24'). Yaisien then had two chances before half time, without forcing a save from the visiting 'keeper.
Paris continued to make the running in the second period and Coulibaly forced another fine save from distance (68').
It even took a last-minute goal-line clearance from Maxen Kapo to prevent Micillo netting a stoppage-time winner (90+2'). The two sides meet again in Naples in two week's time.
