PSG in the group stage of the Women’s Champions League? Maybe. It will be necessary to make the difference on the return, on October 18, at the Parc des Princes, because Jocelyn Prêcheur’s daughters finished with a parity score against Manchester United (1-1) this Tuesday, in England, as part of the play-offs go. Chawinga responded to Malard’s opener, scoring two goals during the second half. Earlier, Paris FC had flirted with the feat against Wolfsburg (3-3), executioner… of PSG in the quarterfinals last season.
The Parisians can blame themselves, they were cruelly lacking in realism in the face of the Mancunian cage and faded away after a very good first twenty minutes. Sandy Baltimore was the most prominent Parisian and tried several times to make a difference on her own. But the native of Colombes was far too messy in finishing. PSG returned to the locker room at the break with regrets and without a goal (0-0 MT) because Prêcheur’s lines were so much more incisive than their hosts, who did not even shoot once on goal during the first 45 minutes. minutes.
Unfortunately for the Parisiennes, the second half was completely different. Man’s players. United came back from the locker room and immediately attacked PSG, who only retreated. However, this is where the French vice-champions found the fault in the 53rd, through Tabitha Chawinga (0-1), in a new high-class action by Sandy Baltimore. This goal, however, did not bury the Red Devils, quite the contrary. The English pounded the Parisian goal for many minutes, before winning their case from a corner thanks to Frenchwoman Melvine Malard (70th). Manchester United pushed until the end to snatch the victory but Paris held on (1-1 final score).
