Kylian Mbappe played a pivotal role in PSG’s dramatic comeback, assisting Goncalo Ramos’ late goal to salvage a 1-1 draw against relegation-threatened Clermont Foot.
Clermont Foot seized the lead after 30 minutes through Habib Keita’s deflected strike, leaving PSG trailing. Despite a disallowed goal for debutant Senny Mayulu just before halftime, PSG continued to press.
Mbappe’s introduction proved crucial, as he set up Ramos for the equalizer in the 86th minute, securing a crucial point for PSG at Parc des Princes.
Goncalo Ramos emerged as a standout performer, showcasing resilience after a challenging start in Paris.
His timely goal not only rescued PSG from a potential embarrassment but also highlighted his growing confidence in the capital.
Although Ramos was unfortunate not to convert additional chances, his contribution earned PSG a vital draw.
In contrast, Randal Kolo Muani struggled to make an impact during his 67-minute stint, failing to seize the opportunity to impress.
Despite registering two shots on goal, Muani’s performance fell short of expectations, raising doubts about his suitability for a regular starting role.
Looking ahead, PSG’s focus shifts to the Champions League clash against Barcelona on Wednesday. With Mbappe expected to lead the charge, PSG anticipates a return to full strength for the pivotal first leg of their quarter-final tie.
