Barcola Scores Twice as PSG Triumphs 4-2, Yet Expresses Mixed Reactions
PSG secures victory against Angers with a striking performance
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), continuing their strong run in Ligue 1, bounced back from their Champions League setback with a decisive win against Angers this Saturday night. The match concluded with PSG triumphing 4-2, showcasing their dominance especially in the first half.
Dominant first half performance
PSG took a commanding lead by halftime, scoring four goals, but slightly eased off in the second half, allowing Angers to reduce the deficit. Bradley Barcola, who netted twice, was substituted at halftime by Désiré Doué.
Following the match, Barcola expressed a mixed reaction about their performance. He acknowledged the strong first half, saying, “Yes, we should remember the first half. Four goals are good; we played well in the first half. We relaxed in the second half, which is a shame, but it was a great match. My substitution? I played, and the coach had told me nothing prior to the match. I gave my all in the first half, and that’s it,” he remarked to DAZN.
Barcola shines as top scorer
Bradley Barcola is currently the standout player in Ligue 1, having scored 10 goals in just 11 league matches. He leads the scoring charts, outpacing notable players like Mason Greenwood and Jonathan David.
The number 29 for PSG is off to a phenomenal start this season and has become the first PSG player to score at least 10 goals in Ligue 1 after 11 matches since Edinson Cavani in the 2017-2018 season.
Only Edinson Cavani (11 in 2017/18) has scored more goals than Barcola (10) for PSG after 11 matches of Ligue 1. Among French players, only Karim Benzema (11 in 2007/08) has scored more than Barcola (10) in the first 11 Ligue 1 matches in the last 50 years.
