What's going on with PSG?

PSG won 1-0 against Angers, but a lack of sharpness showed the team still needs time to regain top form.

However, according to analysis from L'Equipe and RMC Sport , the Paris capital team still showed a clear lack of sharpness, despite an improvement compared to the match against Nantes (1-0 win) in round 1. This is not the image of the team that convincingly dominated the opponent last season.

In the early morning of August 23, the match at Parc des Princes took place with a one-sided game in favor of the home team, but PSG's performance was not convincing. They only had 4 shots on target in the whole match, with the only goal scored by Fabián Ruiz in the 50th minute.

Despite the victory, PSG still revealed notable shortcomings. The reigning European champions' playing style lacked coherence and openness. Analysis from L'Equipe pointed out that PSG had yet to regain the rhythm and attacking power that made them dominate Europe last season.

PSG players appeared lethargic and could not maintain the high pressure intensity that coach Enrique required. This lack of sharpness was actually shown since July, when they lost 0-3 to Chelsea in the 2025 FIFA Club World Cup final.

In the European Super Cup match against Tottenham, PSG also played unconvincingly and only overcame their opponents on penalties. RMC believes that PSG's difficulties against opponents like Angers or Nantes show that the Parisian capital club will face many challenges in the early stages of defending the Ligue 1 and Champions League titles this season.
