Paris is stalling. Unable to convert its domination against Auxerre on Friday December 6, Paris Saint-Germain had to settle for a goalless draw in Burgundy (0-0). Opposite, goalkeeper Donovan Léon had decided not to let anything go. Author of 11 saves, including a face-to-face with Randal Kolo Muani in added time, he was also replaced by his crossbar on the most striking Parisian opportunity, signed Vitinha, following a brilliant sequence in the area (69th).
22 shots (at 6) and 73% of ball possession were not enough for Luis Enrique’s players to make the difference. A week after the embarrassingly impotent draw conceded against Nantes (1-1), the capital club disappoints again and goes two games without a victory for the first time this season in Ligue 1. If its first place is far from being threatened, eight points separating him from his runner-up Marseille, the problems of efficiency are no longer confined to the Champions League.
If Luis Enrique repeated on Thursday that his team achieved “a very good season”the latest signals do not give cause for optimism. However, the machine must absolutely restart before Tuesday. With their backs against the wall in the Champions League because they are 25th and virtually eliminated three days before the end of the league phase, PSG travels to Austria to face Salzburg. Any result other than a victory would plunge the club into crisis.
