PSG Overcomes Auxerre with Barcola’s Late Goal to Reclaim Ligue 1 Lead
After being held at bay for a long time in Auxerre, Paris Saint-Germain finally triumphed (0-1) in this 19th round, thanks to a goal from Bradley Barcola. The PSG ratings reflect their temporary return to the top of Ligue 1, overtaking RC Lens.
PSG Ratings vs AJ Auxerre
1. L. Chevalier – 5/10
Chevalier had a calm first half, facing only one off-target shot from Auxerre. After the break, he was involved in some concerning moments, including a dangerous but off-target shot from Namaso (53′) and another from Sinayoko (56′). A fair rating for his performance.
2. W. Zaïre-Emery – 5/10
Zaïre-Emery, still in his hybrid role, was effective both on the flank and in midfield. His intelligence in alternating between these zones created problems for the opposition. However, he struggled to connect with Kvaratskhelia and made a costly mistake that led to a significant chance for Auxerre (22′). He faced increased pressure during Auxerre’s strong quarter-hour in the second half.
3. I. Zabarnyi – 6/10
Zabarnyi’s first half was impressive, defending effectively high up the pitch (17′) and covering spaces left by Beraldo while also supporting Sinayoko (13′, 14′). He made no significant errors in the second half, raising a question about whether he performs better in a three-man defense.
4. L. Beraldo – 5/10
Beraldo was not heavily challenged in the first half, aside from a few counterattacks from Auxerre. He made no notable mistakes but walked a fine line between committing fouls, receiving a yellow card in the 72nd minute after a collision with Sinayoko, and intervening cleanly on a few crosses in the closing minutes.
5. L. Hernandez – 4/10
L. Hernandez delivered a mixed performance. He displayed the ability to execute precise long diagonals towards Ibrahim Mbaye but struggled with simple passes. Solid in aerial duels, he faltered defensively when the ball was on the ground, particularly when retreating toward his goal, allowing Ahamada to provoke him. Was he distracted by off-field matters?
6. Vitinha – 6/10
From his first touch, a delightful pass to Barcola (2′), it was clear that the Parisian captain for the night was operating at a superior level. Constantly sought by teammates to orchestrate play, Vitinha remained composed under pressure. He achieved a remarkable 94% pass accuracy by halftime, with a majority of his passes executed in the opponent’s half.
7. S. Mayulu – 4/10
Similar to his performance in Lisbon, Mayulu played it simple, prioritizing cleanliness over risk. He contributed to ball retention in Auxerre’s half and combined well with Barcola on the left. His low shot in the 75th minute was one of PSG’s few chances in the second half.
8. I. Mbaye – 4/10
Mbaye had a neutral first half before shifting back to the right flank. He missed a chance (35’) after a scramble in the box, with his shot saved by D. Leon. He was replaced in the 61st minute by D. Doué, who failed to seize his opportunity (76′) with the goal wide open.
9. K. Kvaratskhelia – 5/10
Kvaratskhelia made a memorable run, cutting into the box from the right and narrowly missing a goal due to a defender’s intervention. After scoring in Lisbon, he played on the right flank but briefly took on a more free role towards the end of the first half. His defensive efforts, previously criticized by Enrique, were improved tonight, although he faded as the match progressed.
10. G. Ramos – 4/10
Ramos started brightly, missing two one-on-one opportunities against Donovan Leon in the early seconds. He soon fell into a pattern of poor choices and lack of accuracy. After being set up by Dembélé (80′), he finally scored, finishing past Leon despite a slightly heavy first touch and a reaction from the Auxerre goalkeeper.
