Gazzanigathe best player of the match, the hero of Paris, was not to blame, because his performance had prevented PSG from scoring earlier.

Paris did not see the best Girona (weak in attack) but both the team Michel like that of Luis Enrique They have suffered some very powerful losses and need to digest the absences, on both sides. In the end, logic prevailed and Girona left Paris with their heads held high and having taken a crash course in the Champions League in the first match. Now it is the turn of Barça and Atlético de Madrid in the Superchampions with demanding matches in Monaco and against Leipzig.
