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
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.

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

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
