The PSG stars, with the 'MNM' trio (Messi-Neymar-Mbappé) in charge, responded well to get the team out of trouble and leave the three points at Parque dos Príncipes. Messi and Neymar were the protagonists, with a goal and an assist each.

Troyes, eleventh placed, opened the scoring in Paris, with a goal from Mama Baldé after just 3 minutes. In the 24th minute, Spaniard Carlos Soler equalized, after making a beautiful dribble after receiving an assist from Neymar, but Baldé put Troyes ahead again in the 52nd minute.

Messi then appeared to command the Parisian reaction, with a strong shot with his left foot in the 55th minute. The Argentine star provided a perfect assist for Neymar to finish perfectly in the 62nd minute, already putting the local team ahead on the scoreboard.

PSG's offensive was total and the chances kept coming. Troyes added excitement to the final minutes by reducing it to 4-3 in the 88th minute, with a goal from Ante Palaversa, but the score never changed and the three points remained in Paris.

It is PSG's third consecutive victory in Ligue 1 and added to this triumph is qualification for the round of XNUMX of the Champions League.

The French champion will, therefore, arrive with high morale for Wednesday's game in Turin against Juventus, at the end of the group stage of the Champions League, where they aim to finish as leader of their group to, theoretically, have a less complicated match in the round of 16.
