In a match full of emotions, PSG managed to beat RC Lens with an impressive comeback, taking a 1-2 victory in one of the most disputed matches of the season.

Despite an irregular first half, the Parisians recovered in the second half to secure the three points in a fantastic comeback.

This victory allows PSG to keep its attention on the upcoming challenges, both in Ligue 1 and in the UEFA Champions League, as Luis Enrique mentioned in his post-match statements.

Rumours also continue to rumble in the Parisian club, where the fall of a possible signing was confirmed a year ago, due to his high value in the market.

Gianluigi Donnarumma was PSG’s MVP in securing victory for the Parisians

The star of the match for PSG was Gianluigi Donnarumma, the 25-year-old Italian goalkeeper, who had a remarkable performance between the sticks.

Despite conceding a goal, Donnarumma made six crucial saves, three of them inside the box, demonstrating his reflexes and speed.

In addition, his performance with his feet was also notable, completing 10 of 13 passes, highlighting his improvement in the distribution game.

According to Sofascore statistics, Donnarumma was one of the best players in the match, but for the match in general he was the MVP, being decisive in PSG taking the victory and RC Lens only scoring one goal.


PSG have a significant challenge in the Champions League

Following this important victory, PSG are preparing for their next encounter against Manchester City at the Parc des Princes, a crucial match in the UEFA Champions League group stage.

With the team currently in a compromised position in the table, the encounter against the English team is vital to keep their hopes of qualification alive.

Expectations are high, and Donnarumma, along with his teammates, are expected to shine in this important duel to get closer to the next round of the European tournament.
