Match Events

  • 0' It’s Showtime! The match between Paris Saint-Germain FC and RB Leipzig is underway.
  • 2' RB Leipzig player sees a Yellow card in front of him.
  • 7' RB Leipzig is showing some good football. However, RB Leipzig are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.
  • 11' Magnificent from Neymar Jr.! That is 113 goals in 520 appearances — and it could not have come at a better time.
  • 16' Paris Saint-Germain FC seems to be on a short break. The game is mainly concentrated in the center. It’s high time they got back to action. Otherwise, it looks like a goalless game.

  • 26' RB Leipzig are keeping things exceptionally tight at the back. It will take something special to break them down.
  • 31' Supporters expect more eagerness from Nordi Mukiele, as he is very good at scoring at Parc des Princes with 1 goals in the last 1 games.
  • 36' Ander Herrera needs to be pretty careful with his discipline considering 30 Yellow cards this season.
  • 40' Neymar Jr. picks up a Yellow card and will need to be extremely careful for the remainder of this match.
  • 45' While there is no rush on the pitch, let’s have a look at some stats. Willi Orban made 513 appearances and scored 30 goals. He is very likely to score a goal today.
  • 50' Paris Saint-Germain FC are enjoying more possession but struggling to find a way through a disciplined RB Leipzig backline.
  • 55' The 28-year-old Amadou Haidara has been sensational this season — 0 goals and 0 assists is a remarkable return.
