PSG faced Lens on Saturday night, they were the big favourites, but they had to turn away all the points at the last minute. Not only Lionel Messi was unlucky in the match, but also Keylor Navas, who will definitely not be happy with the goal he cashed in.

Lens have been more than solid so far this season. After 17 rounds, it is in a solid 5th position in the table, moreover, it was very close to a sensation on Saturday night.

It could have beaten PSG, who only levelled the score in injury time at the end of the game. And was the 1-1 draw a coincidence? It wasn’t.

A sympathetic team was able to outshoot the Parisians, and was worse in the match only in ball possession, where PSG dominated. However, Lens were also lucky enough.

For one thing, Lionel Messi’s beautiful shot from outside the box only hit the bar, but in the second row they also scored a goal thanks to a mistake by Keylor Navas, who definitely should have caught the shot that went behind him.

As for Messi, apart from hitting the bar, he created two chances for his teammates and, right after Kylian Mbappe, he was the best PSG player of the match according to WhoScored.

In addition to the criticism, the goalkeeper Navas also deserves praise, who also made several saves to support his team.

PSG have 42 points after 17 rounds, have lost only once and now drew for the third time this season. They have a solid 13-point lead over second-placed Olympique Marseille.
