Lionel Messi scored the first goal of the win psg in his visit to Nice (2-0) for the 30th. date of league 1 of France, which allowed his team to end a streak of two consecutive defeats and maintain the distance of six units at the top of the table.
Leo got the 100th goal of the season for PSG and the 14th. personal in the French tournament to establish himself as the second highest scorer in the Parisian team after Kylian Mbappé (19).
The Argentina captain received an assist from Nuno Mendes in the 26th minute and beat Danish goalkeeper Kasper Schmeichel with a left-footed touch that entered near the top left corner.
Messi scored again after a month in “Le Championat”, since he had not done so since the 4-2 defeat of Nantes, on March 4.
In the second half, the “Flea” served a corner kick to the Spanish Sergio Ramos, who put final figures on the scoreboard when 31 minutes elapsed.
PSG regained momentum after losses at home to Rennes and Olympique de Lyon and restored its six-point lead, which had been cut to three with guard Lens’ victory on Friday.
The victory was pacifying for the club from the French capital, which this week was involved in a controversy with Mbappé for the unconsulted use of his image for an advertising spot.
Christophe Galtier’s team will play again next Saturday against Lens in the Parc des Princes, where Messi received whistles during the last two presentations.
