PSG was held in check on the pitch of AJ Auxerre this Friday on the occasion of the 14th day of Ligue 1 (0-0) and continues a third match in a row without success.
23:10 – The match summary
Paris concedes a draw to Auxerre (0-0). The Parisians quickly take possession of the ball against opponents who group together quite low. They are the ones who will also give themselves the first big opportunity. Ramos is at the end of a good Parisian offensive movement but his header is perfectly saved by Léon (18′). Ten minutes later, the Parisians showed themselves, once again, to be dangerous with Ruiz’s disallowed goal (28′). Paris continues to dominate. Nuno Mendes is very active and is not far from being a scorer but Léon still makes a very good save (33′). The Auxerre goalkeeper remained at this pace in the second half and had to work on returning from the locker room on attempts by Lee or Hakimi. The last 20 minutes are disjointed. Fatigue takes over and Paris is close to making Léon give in with a sublime curling shot from Vitinha which hits the bar (68′). Two minutes later, it was Donnarumma who saved Paris with Traoré’s powerful strike (70′). But the hero of the evening wears the Auxerre tunic. Léon, at the end of the match, made two exceptional saves bringing his total saves to 11 this evening. It will have disgusted the Parisians who remain silent for the first time this season in Ligue 1 before returning to Salzburg for a decisive match in the Champions League.
23:00 – Nuno Mendes regrets the lack of efficiency

“It’s a successful match against the first in the standings. We expected this kind of match. We have a magnificent crowd who push us all the time.
