Paris: Kylian Mbappe and Angel Di Maria are one of the scorers as the Paris Saint-Germain team who lost both Lionel Messi and Neymar won 4-2 away at Brest on Friday to make three wins from these three seasons in Ligue 1.
Ander Herrera and Idrissa Gana Gana also found the net for the capital side when they moved with nine points from nine who were possible and clearly at the top of the younger French table with a successive 4-2 victory.
The 15,000 full house in Brittany was rejected the opportunity to see Messi made his PSG debut after Argentine players were left from troops when he continued to build his fitness.
Neymar, who like Messi returned to train after going far to the Copa America final last month, was also abandoned but PSG once again showed that they had a little trouble finding the net and winning without two superstars.
However, once again they survive leaving a lot to be desired and will give coach Mauricio Pochettino food to think about a number of players still waiting on the sidelines.
The hero of Euro 2020 Italy Gianluigi Donnarumma appeared in the squad for the first time since his arrival from AC Milan but was left on the bench when Keylor Navas began on the goal.
European season’s championship, Marco Verratti, did play for the first time this season in midfield but captain Marquinhos was still missing.
Mbappe has dominated the headlines in Paris since the arrival of Messi as speculation surrounds the future of the World Cup winner, which is not contracted at the end of the campaign and is a target for Real Madrid.
But he founded a total of four goals in the opening league win against Troyes who were promoted and against Strasbourg, and once again Mbappe played a central role in an uncertain environment from Stade Francis-le Ble.
PSG advanced in the middle of the first half when Mbappe tried a crossed cross which was cleaned to the edge of the area where Herrera met the ball on volleyball and the Spanish driver’s shot found the lower corner.
Mbappe made him 2-0 in the 36th minute, arriving to his first goal of the season after Georginio Wijnaldum’s shot had been blocked.
Brest got one back just before the break when Franck Honor was finished first after the heel heel was good by Romain Faivre.
Nevertheless Gueye appeared to put the game when he made it 3-1 in the 73rd minute with a fully 35 meter piledriver from the Brest of the Dutch international goalkeeper Marco Bizot could only help on the way.
But Brest pulled another five minutes.
From time to Steve Munie, with Faivre again provided assistance.
PSG was actually in the danger of conceding equalizer until the 90th minute when, because Brest threw everyone ahead, Di Maria went bankrupt and played one-two with Achraf Judge before scoring with a pleasant lob.
Di Maria has come to Mbappe late for her first appearance from the campaign and its aim reminiscent of its winners for Argentina in the Copa America final against Brazil last month.
Saturday in Ligue 1 saw Monaco’s host lens between two legs of their Champions League play-off against Shakhtar Donetsk, before the defending champion Lille went to Saint-Etienne.
