Paris Saint-Germain delivered an offensive festival on Tuesday night at the BayArena. Winning 7-2 against Bayer Leverkusen, the Parisian club confirmed its rise in the Champions League.
As often, the ratings from the two newspapers Le Parisien and L’Équipe are significantly different, with some ratings being completely incomprehensible…
Ratings from Le Parisien
Barcola (5.5) – Discreet despite a precise pass, less sharp than usual.
Doué (8) – Two goals, active and bold. The kid made everything happen.
Kvaratskhelia (6.5) – One goal, impactful, but still some ball losses.
Mayulu (6) – Present in the good plays, but a notch below the other attackers.
Vitinha (9) – The conductor. One goal, one assist, a lesson in tempo.
Zaïre-Emery (7) – Valuable and consistent, the silent boss of the midfield.
Nuno Mendes (7.5) – Still explosive. He dominated his flank and scored again.
Pacho (7) – Solid and a scorer. A complete evening.
Zabarnyi (Not rated) – Sent off after 37 minutes. A night to forget.
Hernandez (5) – A decent entry, nothing more.
Hakimi (6) – Serious, focused, not put in danger.
Chevalier (4) – Not always reassuring despite the high score.
Ratings from L’Équipe
Luis Enrique (7) – Good management of the group and an increasingly fluid game.
Barcola (6) – Active without being decisive.
Doué (8) – Unstoppable, inspired, decisive.
Kvaratskhelia (7) – Efficient and impactful.
Mayulu (7) – Energetic and a great complement in midfield.
Vitinha (7) – Less generous, the rating is surprising. The Portuguese dictated everything.
Zaïre-Emery (7) – Always in the right tempo.
Nuno Mendes (8) – A rocket. Scorer and omnipresent.
Pacho (7) – Impeccable at the back, author of the opening goal.
Zabarnyi (Not rated) – Sent off before halftime.
Hernandez (6) – Good defensive support.
Hakimi (6) – Simple and effective.
Chevalier (5) – A few saves, but still shaky on his line.
Analysis
Both newspapers agree on one point: Doué and Nuno Mendes were impressive, while Vitinha orchestrated the game with total mastery. The only real difference is the rating for the Portuguese, deemed a bit harsh by L’Équipe.
Zabarnyi, sent off in the first half, logically receives a “not rated,” while Chevalier remains the most improvable link.
In the end, it is a conquering, inspired PSG full of confidence that leaves Germany, with an avalanche of goals and individuals on fire.
