PSG, whose main players’ stamina had declined during the recent UEFA Champions League semifinals, played against Lyon with Lee Kang-in, Kylian Mbappe, Fabian Luis, and Ousmane Dembele on the bench.
Nevertheless, PSG had a hot goal feast from the first half.
In the 3rd minute of the first half, Marco Asensio’s cross to the left of the goal area was deflected off the foot of Lyon defender Nemanja Vidic, and the ball was sucked into the goal.
The goal was recorded as Vidic’s own goal.
PSG, who scored the first goal through a combination of luck, scored an additional goal in the 6th minute of the first half when Bradley Barcola dropped the ball with his head during a left corner kick and Lucas Beraldo pushed the ball in with his left foot in front of the goal.
PSG gained momentum and went one step further in the 32nd minute of the first half when Gonzalo Hamus rushed to the front of the goal area following Achiraf Hakimi’s cross from the right side and scored with a header.
Lyon, which has been on the rise for the past two consecutive wins and undefeated for five consecutive games (4 wins, 1 draw), launched a counterattack in the 37th minute of the first half when Ernest Nuama scored a chasing goal with a powerful left-footed shot from near the penalty arc.
However, PSG’s rise was unstoppable.
In the 42nd minute of the first half, during a quick counterattack, Hamus received a pass from Asensio who penetrated to the left of the penalty area and completed his multiple goals with a right-footed shot near the front of the penalty area, giving PSG their fourth goal in the first half alone.
