Paris Saint-Germain booked a 2-3 win on Saturday evening visiting Girondins de Bordeaux. Neymar was good for two goals before half-time, after which Kylian Mbappé thought to end the game in the second half on the advice of Georginio Wijnaldum. Bordeaux then made it exciting, but came up short for a result. With the win, PSG proudly leads the way in Ligue 1 with 34 points from 13 matches. The lead on the first pursuer RC Lens is ten points.
After his two goals in the Champions League match with RB Leipzig last Wednesday, Wijnaldum was again given a base place from trainer Mauricio Pochettino. At the home team, a Dutchman also started with Javairô Dilrosun from the first whistle. Both teams struggled to create great opportunities in the opening phase. Where Lionel Messi was missing due to a muscle injury, the other star players of Paris Saint-Germain stood up halfway through the first half. Kylian Mbappé gave a tailor-made cross to Neymar, who then outwitted goalkeeper Benoît Costil in the short corner: 0-1.

Just before half-time, the visitors doubled the margin and once again the star attackers of PSG played the leading roles. Neymar entered into a combination with Mbappé, who gave the ball behind his standing leg. The Brazilian wing attacker scored again in the left corner: 0-2. The French superpower wanted to push through immediately after the break. Mbappe had a good opportunity, but his attempt was narrowly blocked by Laurent Koscielny. It was the signal for Bordeaux to also test Keylor Navas. Yacine Adli tried with a shot from a distance.

After more than an hour of play, PSG seemed to close the game. Ander Herrera served the in-depth Wijnaldum tailor, who then gave one-on-one with Costil broad on Mbappé. The European champion was able to push the ball into an empty goal: 0-3. Ten minutes before the end, Bordeaux brought back the tension in the match. Adli took advantage of Danilo’s sloppy ball loss. The midfielder gave Alberth Elis the lead, who shot the ball into the right corner: 1-3. After a nice combination, M’Baye Niang determined the final score in injury time at 2-3.
