Brest vs psg

PSG are back at the top of the Ligue 1 after hanging on for a narrow 1-0 home win over relegation-threatened Stade Brestois, who failed to convert a late penalty which would have equalized the match. It was PSG'ssixthwin in seven league matches, but it didn't come with the same newfound swagger of recent victories under new manager Christophe Galtier. Brest was the better team in the second half and came on strong to end the match. But PSG 'keeper Gigi Donnarumma stopped Islam Slimani's penalty to preserve the 1-0 advantage. Neymar continued his hot start to the campaign with the game-winning goal in the first half.The Brazilian scored his league-leading eighth goal of the season, converting a spectacular assist from Argentine great Lionel Messi, who picked him out on the run. Neymar applied the exquisite control and finish in a single motion for the game-changing moment. It was that gulf in class between the two sides that ultimately provided the difference in the scoreline. PSG will next get set to take on Maccabi Haifa on Wednesday in their second Champions League group match, while Brest remain in the bottom four relegation spots, but they will take heart and look for all three points against Ajaccio in a match thatwill have implications in the battle to avoid the drop in Ligue 1.

Paris Saint-Germain are hoping to make it three wins in a row as they take on Brest at Stade Francis-Le Ble on Friday night. Paris Saint-Germain have enjoyed resounding success this summer, both on and off the pitch. While the capture of Lionel Messi along with some of the other superstars in world football has certainly caught the eye, they have performed very well in these early stages of the campaign as well, notably kickstarting their 2021/22 Ligue 1 with two wins in a row. On Friday, they will have the opportunity to make it three wins in three as they travel to Stade Francis-Le Ble to face Brest. It is going to be a vital affair for the Ligue 1 giants, in their quest to regain the Ligue 1 title after LOSC Lille’s triumph last season. It is questionable whether Brest would represent a tougher challenge, having only narrowly escaped relegation by a point last term. The hosts have had a positive start to the season, though, having managed to take points off both Stade Rennais and Olympique Lyon. They are currently in mid-table in these early stages, with PSG in third, behind Angers and Clermont Foot. It remains to be seen whether any of these three clubs manage to retain their hundred percent winning record heading into this third Matchday in Ligue 1, but Brest will certainly try to cause an upset that could serve as a confidence-booster in the weeks to come. And here, at The Hard Tackle, we will run the rule over these two sides in their enticing encounter in this nort...

Ray Liotta's cause of death confirmed a year after he died, more news Kylian Mbappe rescued PSG once again with a 90th minute goal that gave the defending French champions a 2-1 win at relegation-threatened Brest in the first match after they were eliminated from the UEFA Champions League in midweek. © Provided by Sporting News Mbappe, the Ligue 1 joint top scorer, was lucky to still be on the field after he kicked out twice at a Brest player minutes earlier, but the officials opted to give him a yellow card as the VAR did not recommend a video review. Brest arguably deserved the draw based on the balance of play in the match, standing toe-to-toe with a more talented side and exchanging first-half goals. But a clinical PSG counterattack saw Mbappe charging hard at the Brest goalkeeper after just two passes. He easily rounded the 'keeper to net the winner. The three points helped PSG to extend their lead atop the table to 11 points with second-place Marseille in action on Sunday. There are 11 matches remaining in PSG's Ligue 1 season as they chase their 11th league title — the only major trophy available to win for the star-studded side. MORE: PSG — Carlos Soler — 37th min.

PSG's spirits will surely have dampened after they bowed out of the UEFA Champions League on a 3-0 aggregate to Bayern Munich, with lamentable displays all over the pitch. Their thirst for a maiden European triumph remains unquenched. However, when it comes to Ligue 1, Les Parisiens hold a comfortable eight-point lead at the top of the table, registering important wins against Lille, Marseille and Nantes in their previous three games. As effective as they have been in front of goal in the league, their defence remains shaky; PSG have conceded five goals in their last three games., On the other hand, Brest's narrow 1-0 win over Strasbourg last weekend ended their run of five league games without a win. Winning against PSG will be extremely important for Les Pirates as they are just one point above the relegation zone. Brest vs PSG confirmed lineups Brest XI (4-1-4-1): Bizot; Fadiga, Dari, Brassier, Duverne; Lees-Melou; Honorat, Magnetti, Belkebla, Del Castillo; Mounié PSG XI (4-3-3): Donnarumma; Pembélé, Danilo Pereira, Sergio Ramos, Mendes; Verratti; Vitinha, Zaïre-Emery; Soler, Messi, Mbappé Brest vs PSG LIVE updates
