Indeed, or almost ... there is the return match, next Tuesday.

In any case, “ 

Heroic Paris!

 », Launches

Le Parisien

on the front page.

PSG therefore won last night against Bayern Munich, reigning European champion, with a score of 3 to 2. “ 

Thanks in particular to a double from Mbappé, the Parisians signed a resounding feat in the quarterfinals. final first leg of the Champions League.

 "

The Parisian

exults: “ 

Paris works miracles!

(…) It makes you wonder if Keylor Navas is at the moment the best goalkeeper in the world, if Neymar has already shown such involvement in Paris with efficiency at the end, if the value of Mbappé does not take 20 million dollars. euros in each Champions League match, if Paris has finally become a great team whatever its composition, and if it will qualify for the semi-final of the Champions League.

 "

Everything turned upside down ...

“ 

To be enjoyed frozen…

 ”, for its part,

L'Équipe

.

The team

that alludes to the snow squalls that punctuated this match, however hot.

Yes, PSG is capable of anything,

exclaims the sports daily

, when Neymar and Mbappé are at this point at the height of their talent and the event, and yes, he knows how to create a feeling of team in adversity, or in his good days.

In the meantime, very quickly, to become reasonable again, and to wonder on what to base the hope, in a week, of extinguishing a Bayern which will not be able to get its feet in the carpet twice in a row, at least in these proportions, it is still time to be turned around by this spectacle, as well as by its outcome.

 "

And indeed, points

Le Figaro,

“ 

the Parisians were devilishly efficient: six strikes, five on target, three goals.

Difficult to do better…

 ”While“ 

Bayern only found the net twice out of 31 strikes, including 12 on target.

"

In short, for

Le Figaro,"

the Parisians have achieved the perfect shot ...

 "

The debate on the end of life in parliament

Also on the front page: the end of life and this question on the front page of

La Provence

 : " 

should the law be changed?"

 », With the right to die with dignity, on a voluntary basis.

“ 

The bill examined this Thursday in the National Assembly is the subject of 3,000 amendments,

notes

La Provence.

An outcry that risks making it impossible to hold the parliamentary debate.

 "

Yet the question is major, " 

complex

 ", comments the newspaper: " 

270 parliamentarians hope to pave the way for a free and chosen end of life in France.

Opposite, LR deputies have built a wall of amendments which may therefore prevent the debate from taking place.

Mostly in favor of euthanasia, the French nevertheless expect answers.

 "

20 years that we wait

For

Liberation, "

It is time, because for 20 years, nothing has changed

 ", exclaims the newspaper ... Certainly, " 

the law known as Claeys-Leonetti, adopted in 2016, allows deep sedation and continues until death , under conditions (…), but on active assistance in dying, this law remains in ambiguity.

Today, this sedation is rarely practiced, it is even often refused.

The debate remains frozen,

points the newspaper

.

As if the refusal to evoke any intention to kill were to prevent legislative progress.

The new text, which appears in the middle of Covid, openly evokes an active gesture.

It is not consensual, in any case does not induce the same divisions.

"

And

Liberation

wonders: 

"

will it mark the end of a 20-year ambiguity?

 "

Do nothing in a hurry!

Le Figaro

does not agree: " 

by making it impossible to vote on the text, the club of five LR deputies does not prevent the debate, it rather avoids such a major decision being voted in a hurry," says the newspaper, without a sufficient echo being granted to the ins and outs of the recognition of a "right" on his death or that of others.

 "

Finally, for

La Croix

, “ 

the urgency is not to offer the possibility of shortening life.

It is to develop research against pain and promote palliative care, the offer of which is still very unevenly distributed across the territory.

Any development in the direction of euthanasia will be all the more harmful to such objectives as they require trained personnel and budgetary resources far greater than those required for lethal injections.

 "

And

La Croix

concluded: “ 

yes, in France people die badly, as the defenders of this bill point out.

But the cure is not in euthanasia.
