Alexander clings in vain to Monaco.

Matvey cheered for Donnarumma from the bench

The Italian turned out to be a strong guy. Although the wounds on his face did not heal completely, the spikes cut the goalkeeper’s cheek PSGthe main goalkeeper decided to play in the final of the French Super Cup. Safonov sat on the bench and actively reacted to what was happening on the field in Qatar. Owners PSG decided to play at home. And this meant that the favorite absolutely could not lose the cup. Luis Enrique plays with fire in the Champions League, but in national competitions one rule applies.

The rivals of the Parisians achieve victories and draws only when PSG makes serious mistakes and demonstrates a clear decline in his footballing standards. When the team failed to beat Lens in the French Cup, they had to take risks in the penalty shootout. Safonov parried two shots and saved PSG treble chances Donnarumma made five saves against Monaco in the final. The game opened up in the second half, when they began to respond attack after attack. But the goalkeeper came to the rescue.

Considering his status, level and age – Donnarumma is only 25 years old, the goalkeeper is slightly younger than the striker Mbappe, the Italian will want to be promoted and leave Ligue 1. There will definitely be offers, because Real Madrid, Manchester City and Bayern may need goalkeepers soon. Courtois, Ederson and Neuer will leave and replacements may not make it. Then the reserve goalkeeper Safonov will be in the starting lineup PSGwhere he was well received. There are successes, even if you go on reservations.

Meanwhile Matvey enjoys the celebration of the first trophy of his career. The French Super Cup is not such an important cup that you can go crazy. Then there are the important matches of the national tournaments and the Champions League. PSG they have won 11 of the last 12 French Super Cups. Good stats for Safonov. He will win many trophies and gain experience working in a champion team. It is useful for career, because Matvey himself is only 25 years old, he has ten ahead of him in football.

PSG he controlled the final against Monaco

There were cases when the Monegasques surprised the Parisians. Then the team in red and white shirts looked noticeably better and the favorites were disappointing. But Luis Enrique did something important in Paris. He doesn’t trust players like Verratti and Neymar. It was the stars who lost PSG important games before that. The talented Italian and Brazilian represented a group of Parisian footballers who wasted their energy on partying and alcohol. Concentration fell, the team was poisoned.

Yesterday Verratti was in the stands, now he plays in Qatar. And Enrique even forces Dembélé to analyze his mistakes off the pitch. The coach forgave the winger after an argument, and he repaid with a winner into an empty net in the 92nd minute. Monaco have a habit of being stupid defensively out of the blue. Difficult to do so a few seconds before the final whistle of regulation time, but Golovin’s teammates manage it. Consequentially PSG he dispersed the counterattack with his left flank and took the trophy.

PSG controlled the combat in almost all segments in chronological order. They had about three dozen shots at someone else’s goal. The hero of the whole match, if we evaluate the level of skill and the number of inclusions in the game, we can safely call the goalkeeper of Monaco, the young Swiss goalkeeper Philipp Koehn. He flew beautifully, took 9 out of 10 hits. You can also blame the football players PSG. They often shoot high, which is more convenient for jumping goalkeepers. The Parisians are looking for a “nine” on the market because they need a striker.

But in the final the midfielders Vitinha, Zaire-Emery and Neves performed well. A promising triangle, everyone loves to work with the ball. And they will become even more stable if Luis Enrique manages to intelligently distribute the workload without the ball among the young midfielders. The Monaco players gave it their all, they also have a good passing culture. But Hütter hasn’t come up with an effective offensive punch. By positioning Golovin more centrally and Minamino in the attacking four, we didn’t get a tsunami of killer chances.

Golovin is wasting his youth in Monte Carlo

Life in Monaco is great if you’re a womanizer favored by European actresses and a gambler with millions of euros in your great-grandmother’s trust fund. The old lady sold whiskey during Prohibition and then bought several oil rigs in Texas. But seven seasons in unstable Monaco without trophies is a bad career for a strong footballer from the city of Kaltan, far from France. If we take the lineup that Golovin started with at the Ligue 1 club, only him remains.

Many of the midfielder’s former teammates represent clubs nuclear submarinealthough not everything is as successful as Aston Villa midfielder Tielemans. Midfielder Tchouameni won five cups in one year with Real Madrid. A player of Golovin’s level has nothing left to do in Monaco for many years, because the chances of winning important trophies tend to be zero. Alexander is like a black sheep on the team, and not just because of his dyed hair. In six and a half seasons, Golovin has experienced eight coaching resignations, which also highlights his mistakes.

Coach Hütter signed a new contract, but failed to celebrate his success with a victory PSG. “Monaco” did not lose to the favorite for an hour and a half, but strictly thanks to the goalkeeper and the mistakes of the players of the capital club. Golovin skillfully directed his team’s attacks in the right direction a couple of times. And in the end he was left without his first trophy in France. This is the case when it is more profitable to be the reserve goalkeeper of the eternal champion Safonov than to be the captain of a team with unstable performance and without cups.

Furthermore, Monaco are still doing well this season, even though they are hopelessly behind in Ligue 1. PSG. There were absolutely ridiculous coaching bets, such as for raw mentor Thierry Henry at the time. There were years without the Champions League, which also complicated Golovin’s path to a strong team. He should have left sooner. Many leagues are ready to sign a midfielder from the League 1 team of the year. Alexandru after new defeats PSG at the end of the season we will have to think about changing the team again. It’s important that Golovin gets promoted.
