First-Half Dominance:

The match kicked off with a high-intensity display from both sides, as neither team allowed room to breathe. Within the first five minutes, Ousmane Dembele missed a golden opportunity for PSG, failing to convert a pinpoint cross from Kylian Mbappe.

Under intense pressure, PSG’s Brazilian defender Marquinhos struggled, committing sever al errors that added to the burden on goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Desperate Attempts and Resilience:

PSG attempted to level the score, with efforts from Zayr Emre, Gonzalo Ramos, and Mbappe, but they fell short. Kylian Mbappe, in particular, was surprisingly subdued.

On the other hand, Swiss midfielder Fabian Schar came close to doubling Newcastle’s lead with a dangerous shot that narrowly missed the post after a well-executed corner by Kieran Trippier.

PSG’s defense seemed shaky, and VAR caught Marquinhos offside in the buildup to Dan Burn’s goal, which further extended Newcastle’s lead. The PSG captain’s lapse in concentration proved costly, leaving Bruno Guimaraes to cover the offside trap.

As the match progressed, Enrique lost control of his PSG squad, leading to increased tension on the field. As a result, both Achraf Hakimi and Lucas Hernandez received yellow cards.

Efforts in Vain:

The excitement continued in the early minutes of the second half as Newcastle extended their lead with Sean Longstaff’s clinical finish following a precise pass from Kieran Trippier.

PSG managed to narrow the deficit as Lucas Hernandez found the back of the net in the 56th minute after a pass from Zayr Emre. However, their hopes of a comeback were short-lived.

Newcastle played with growing confidence, while PSG’s midfield lacked cohesion. The usual threat posed by stars like Mbappe, Ramos, and Achraf Hakimi was notably absent, and Ousmane Dembele squandered the team’s best chance.

With time ticking away, Swedish striker Alexander Isak unleashed a powerful shot, only to be met by Donnarumma’s steady hands.

Eddie Howe, Newcastle’s manager, made only one substitution, introducing Elliot in place of Sandro Tonali. In contrast, PSG struggled to find focus until the final minutes.

Injury time provided Newcastle with an opportunity they exploited successfully. Fabian Schar sealed the emphatic victory with a spectacular strike into the left corner of the net, igniting jubilation among the fans at St. James’ Park.
