As reported by Africa Top Sports.com, PSG had a comfortable outing in the Champions League this evening, primarily thanks to the contributions of Zlatan Ibrahimovic. The French team secured a commanding 3-0 lead against Benfica at the Parc des Princes by halftime – detailed results can be found below.
The Parisians displayed a performance characterized by ease, showcasing skills previously demonstrated against Olympiakos. New defensive recruit Marquinhos also revealed exceptional goal-scoring talents, while Verratti continued his impressive momentum from the last three matches.
However, the evening was not without its memorable moments, particularly the notable clash involving Jérémy Ménez. Expressing frustration at not being brought into the game, he left the bench when scheduled to play the last minutes of the match – a move that may have consequences.
PSG coach Laurent Blanc downplayed the incident, stating, “It’s not at all uncomfortable; he was disappointed not to enter. That way, at least, he came home earlier (to the locker room). To be honest, I didn’t see him; I was busy coaching the match. I just found out; I won’t comment, I don’t attach much importance to this kind of thing.”
