Overview
- At the Parc des Princes, Bradley Barcola put PSG ahead before Strasbourg surged to a 3-1 lead through a Joaquín Panichelli brace and a Diego Moreira strike, with Gonçalo Ramos converting a penalty and Senny Mayulu leveling for 3-3.
- PSG were without Ousmane Dembélé, Marquinhos, Fabián Ruiz and João Neves, and Luis Enrique rested several regulars as Désiré Doué returned to start in a youthful, reshuffled XI captained by Warren Zaïre-Emery.
- Defensive lapses by Illia Zabarnyi and Lucas Beraldo were cited in the goals conceded, which Luis Enrique acknowledged while defending the rotation plan and lamenting allowing three goals.
- The draw initially kept PSG a point clear of Strasbourg, but Marseille’s 6-2 win over Le Havre the next night moved OM top in a tightening title race.
- Panichelli’s double took him to seven league goals this season, and PSG now turn to Tuesday’s Champions League trip to Bayer Leverkusen.
