PSG fans couldn’t help their frustration and booed Messi and Neymar!

Paris Saint-Germain calmly beat Bordeaux 3-0 in the league to take another step towards the title, yet the home fans were more angry than happy. They still haven’t got over their Champions League elimination, and they made that clear in this match by booing their biggest stars.

PSG fans had clearly proclaimed to the world before the season that their team would battle it out for the Champions League trophy. A look at their team could have proved them right. After all, the star-studded Neymar and Mbappé were complemented by Lionel Messi. However, even this trio did not break the curse.

The wait to win the Champions League must be postponed again for at least one more year, as the star-studded Paris Saint-Germain have already dropped out in the eighth round of football’s most prestigious competition. Real Madrid were in over their heads.

This elimination was hard for everyone in the team, from the fans to the players to the owner of PSG himself. No one could be happy with this result when the overall championship in this competition was expected.

Little consolation can at least be found in winning the French Ligue 1, which the Parisians lead by 16 points. But that is not enough for the fans. The last league game was a clear proof of that, as PSG won 3-0, but the fans booed or booed for most of the game.

Two of the team’s biggest stars, Lionel Messi and Neymar, were under the most pressure. These two were supposed to be the driving forces to ensure that the eared trophy for winning the Champions League would be brought to Paris. During the league match, the fans booed every time Messi or Neymar won the ball. When Neymar scored a goal, instead of celebrating, they booed him.

In addition to booing and booing at their team’s biggest stars, fans are also angry at PSG’s owner. They would really like to see president Nasser Al-Khelaifi resign his post.

Besides the players, PSG coach Mauricio Pochettino has also taken the fans’ behaviour hard. At the post-match press conference, he understood that the fans could not enjoy the Champions League match. However, he added that nobody could like their behaviour during the league match either.

Surprisingly, Kylian Mbappé came out of it all well and the fans did not take their anger out on him. Maybe it was the fact that he gave a good performance against Real Madrid. Or maybe they think that if they don’t boo him, he might change his mind and extend his contract in Paris.
