Metz 1-5 PSG 5: match report, goals, as it happenedMetz 1-5 PSG:Looking at the scoreline, one could be deceived to thinking that this was the usual PSG juggernaut imposing itself in crushing the small provincial side from Lorraine. This is true to a point but the rash tackle by former Spurs and QPR player Assou-Ekotto on PSG debutant Kylian Mbappe which earned the Cameroon international a straight red card was the pivotal moment in tonight's game. The Parisian side started brightly with Metz clearly intimidated by a side boosted with the sight of the most expensive French player of all time lining up at the compact Stade Saint-Symphorien.
Metz head coach Philippe Hinschberger claimed in his pre-match press conference that he would look to the collective of his side to combat the individual excellence in the PSG team. The small city of Metz is expectant with all 25. 000 seats for the stadium now sold-out with locals anxious to see if their side are capable of pulling out the first major surprise of the 2017/18 Ligue 1 campaign and take points off the giants from Paris. PSG team newsThiago Silva and Angel di Maria are both out with hamstring injuries, and join Lucas on the sidelines. Di Maria's absence could see Emery opting to play new signing Mbappé alongside Edinson Cavani and Neymar on Friday. Marco Verratti is back from suspension and the Italian player will slot back into a central midfield role.
The opening goal duly arrived after consistent pressure from the men from the capital as Edinson Cavani latched onto a delightful assist from Neymar to put the Parisian side ahead. Metz respond Instead of cowing and breaking under pressure Metz were valiant in lauching a fifgt-back and were gifted in the 37th minute as Riviere nodded home after poor defending from the men in yellow. From this moment through to the interval and leading up to the sending off, the side in burgundy were arguably the better side with Riviere gifted a golden opportunity just after the interval after a mix-up between Marquinhos and Areola which he blazed over the bar.

The side from the Lorraine region can take a glimmer of hope from last season's performance at the Saint-Symphorien when it took an injury time winner for the side from the capital to secure maximum points with Blaise Matudi bagging in the 93rd minute after it appeared that Diabate had tied the game in the 88th minute for Metz. Metz team newsLate signings Emmanuel Riviere and Philipp Wallscheid are expected to make their Metz debuts at some point during the encounter and the home faithful will look to marksman Roux to try and trouble the PSG back-line.

Team news & rosters2021-22 will be a strange campaign when PSG look back in years to come - a season where triumph is tempered by the exit of a superstar talent at the close of the campaign. If this is Kylian Mbappe's farewell, he will want to sign off on a high note and give Parc des Princes something to remember him by. Predicted PSG starting XI: Navas; Hakimi, Marquinhos, Kimpembe, Mendes; Simons, Verratti; Di Maria, Messi, Neymar; Mbappe.
PSG are flying high and have convincingly outplayed all opponents in securing maximum points and it's very, very, very difficult to see the home side getting anything from the game with the firepower the Parisian side have at their disposable with a formidable striking trio of Edinson Cavini, Neymar Jr. and possibly Mbappé looking to wreak havoc on the Metz rear-guard.
