After the goal of anxiety marked by the Nantais Moses Simon ... - LOIC VENANCE / AFP

  • PSG, who led 2-0 twenty minutes from the end of the match, found a way to get some scares in Nantes Tuesday night.
  • Presnel Kimpembe, who missed a daring move in the central circle, is behind the reduction of the gap of Nantes.

We would have really liked to exchange with Kimpembe on his daring gesture of the 68th. The one that allowed Nantes to return to a match hitherto mastered by Paris. Unfortunately, the Parisian defender sped in the bus without piping a word with his small kit under his arm. PSG, leader with 15 points ahead of OM, won again (1-2) on Tuesday evening in Nantes. A victory yes, but trembling in the last twenty minutes.

The fault with a tailgating in the central circle attempted and missed by Kimpembe following a pass back from Verratti. The following ? It was a rush from Nantais Simon who flat on the foot cheated on Navas then it was a PSG who trembled until the very last moments and who owed the safeguard of his three points either to a Navas, impeccable, or to the clumsiness of the people of Nantes. "We will remember a very good first half," said defender Thomas Meunier, one of the few Parisians to have made a stop in the mixed zone. Very professional, very involved. Then, a second where we simply chained the mistakes and Nantes took half advantage because they could frankly have returned to the score. Emond twice and Simon lacked promptness or came across a very good Navas.

"Not likely to worry ...", says Meunier

"Our gaps must be erased," continues the Belgian. We knew it was not going to be easy. Playing in Nantes every year is complicated. We will retain the three points. And that is indeed about all ... Nothing to worry about, however, hearing the Parisians. Listen to Tuchel a little: “I really liked this match. This is an excellent performance for me, I am very happy with the way we played the first 70 minutes. We controlled the match, we played very aggressive, we got the balls very high, we made a good match with extraordinary quality. The last twenty minutes, however, leave a mixed or even negative feeling about the PSG match. "But, this is not likely to worry us the last twenty minutes, loose Meunier. We are lucky with the champion, finally, I hope so. Nantes was good in the second half because we were weak. "

Kimpembe, what sufficiency!

Like Kimpembe (we come back to it) on the reduction of the gap, which showed immense sufficiency. "It was not inattention, perhaps a little too much confidence," said Thomas Tuchel at the microphone of Canal +, sparing his player.

A fortnight from the eighth finals of the Champions League in Dortmund and a few days from the reception of Lyon (Sunday at 9 p.m.), it is perhaps a good reminder for PSG this hazardous end of the match. “It is important to keep your feet on the ground, you cannot score five goals in each match or make the opponent take a red card and then dominate simply, concludes Thomas Meunier. There are matches that we will have to win in the difficulty in the Champions League or Lyon on Sunday… ”
