Paris Saint-Germain was stuck at a draw on Sunday afternoon. Luis Enriqe's team did not get past Stade Reims in their own Parc des Princes: 2-2. Kylian Mbappé played a leading role in a different way than usual: the French superstar started on the bench.

It is not the first time that Mbappé has not completed ninety minutes. Enrique previously indicated that he was preparing for life after Mbappé with PSG. Ousmane Dembélé also did not have to count on a starting spot les Parisiens. Keylor Navas does. He replaced Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Oh oh oh… Hakimi! ??

It did not exactly produce the desired result for the Spanish coach. Within six minutes the Costa Rican goalkeeper had to fish a ball out of his net. Navas Achraf Hakimi was allowed to look angrily for that.

The Moroccan wing defender lost the ball in his own box in an extremely clumsy manner. Oumar Diakite simply passed to Marshall Munetsi, who was able to tap the ball into the empty goal: 0-1.

To call the first half exciting would be an understatement. PSG quickly straightened out and completely reversed the lead. First, Yunis Abdelhamid turned a PSG corner into his own goal, after which Gonçalo Ramos took the lead.

After a mediocre elimination of the visitors, the Portuguese had an excellent opportunity to score the 2-1 against the ropes and he did not fail to do so. But before half time, Will Still's team leveled the score again.

After a great long ball from Emmanuel Agbadou, Diakite made no mistake face to face with Navas. The Ivorian finished calmly: 2-2. The second half was in stark contrast to the first act.

PSG still gets chances for a second lead through Bradley Barcola, Kang-in Lee and Ramos, but does not capitalize on them. Mbappé and Dembélé, who both came into the team after more than seventy minutes, were also unable to make the difference.
