Still not an easy team to play against. Their defence was hard as fukk to breakdown. Very stubborn.

Let's see how they are next leg without Casemiro

nah breh. That defense was compromised many times, PSG just failed to capitalize

Let's see how they are next leg without Casemiro

Casemiro is too crucial for them, I dont see how they survive without him. He just stabilizes their midfield so well and manages to draw some great fouls to relieve the pressure. But honestly, tonight PSG was just poor in the last third , several times they needed to go simple and they overcomplicated things trying to pass and pass and pass.

That Mbappe goal.

I watched Madrid play yesterday and they are a low energy, badly coached team. They aren't in the conversation.

Surprise surprise. Madrid are

People love building up that flabby midfield like it's still 2016.

All this game shows me is that we'll miss Pogba when he leaves.

Man could have 8 straight great games. Has 1 subpar game and the talk is “he’s everything that’s wrong with United” .

You had lots of the ball in the final third but they were too organised. I can't remember too many clear cut chances. Everything was getting blocked. They weren't really rattled. You needed something special like Mbappe magic to break through.

Having said that Messi was subdued apart from a few moments of brilliance.. No fit Neymar either. You guys might have better luck unlocking them in the second leg
