The Argentine star returned to official competition with his team after having had an excellent World Cup, but was not recognized by his fans in the Parque de los Príncipes for such an achievement
It’s not every day that you win a World Cup and in the case of Lionel Messi is quite gratifying after 16 years fighting for the dream, even so the fans of the psg you don’t see it that way. Although the Parisian club had already returned to official competition after the break, for the Argentine attacker it was his first game after the international competition.
The only acknowledgment they gave to Lionel Messi after being world champion and scoring 7 goals in the world cup, he was a hall of honor made by his teammates in training. La Pulga expected a special greeting from his fans but it never came. The only tribute was for Pelé and because of this the players of the psg they wore t-shirts with the face of the Brazilian legend.
Without a tribute to Messi but with a goal on board for PSG’s victory
It was matchday 18 in Ligue 1 and the Parisian club received Angers, who was last in the standings. At minute 5 the locals were already winning it with a goal from Hugo Ekitike. Still marching as the colero of the French championship, the visitor showed resistance and at times came dangerously close to Donnarumma’s goal.
To reassure things, Lio Messi put the final 2-0 for PSG to take another 3 valuable points in Ligue 1, and consolidate itself as the undisputed leader. On the other side of the coin, the club led by Gérald Baticle completed 10 games with defeat, and continues to sink in the standings. Just 8 points and with a disadvantage of 6 with position 17 to save the category.
Messi for his 43rd title and his third with PSG
Many were the rumors that warned the French club about the departure of the Argentine star from the Parque de los Príncipes if he won the World Cup. The truth is that it seems that he is going to sign a renewal for one more year and will finish this season normally. His team marches as the leader with a difference of 6 points behind the second, which is RC Lens.
If he became Ligue 1 champion again, he would lift his second league title with PSG and his third in France. But in his overall record it would be title number 43, also counting those achieved with Barcelona and the Argentine National Team. La Pulga’s desire is also to be champion of the Champions League once again but with the elastic Parisian.
