Dreadful game management from PSG that they were so close to being level.
Abdou Diallo is booked for a foul on the almost goalscorer in midfield.

A huge let-off for PSG as the goal is disallowed for offside.

Three minutes since the goal and we're still waiting.

Marshall Munetsi definitely looked offside - although he didn't get the ball initially. He got the rebound.
I think this will be disallowed.

VAR is having a look. Was Marshall Munetsi offside when the ball came in?
GOAL - Reims 1-1 PSGpublished at 51 mins
Marshall Munetsi
Well, well, well!
El Bilal Toure gets a bullet header onto a right-wing cross and Keylor Navas, stumbling backwards, spills it with Marshall Munetsi stabbing home the loose ball.
And Reims are level.

PSG's passing has been sloppy since the restart. I wonder if they have any good passers on the bench.

Kylian Mbappe finds Neymar, who picks out Georginio Wijnaldum and his shot is blocked. All PSG again.
KICK-OFFpublished at 46 mins
Reims 0-1 PSG
The second half is under way.
Lionel Messi is still sitting on the bench, in case you're wondering.

There are half-time subs... but neither is the one you might have been hoping for.
Reims bring on Bradley Locko and Valon Berisha for Moreto Cassama and Nathanael Mbuku.

Kylian Mbappe's last two PSG goals have been headers. That is as many as he scored with his head in his first 132 PSG goals.

It says so much about the pure legend that is Lionel Messi that most of the half-time chat on TV has been about him.
When will he come on (presuming he will...)?

While we're talking about French players, Olivier Giroud has scored twice as AC Milan lead Cagliari 4-1.
He is the first AC Milan player to score multiple goals on his Serie A home debut since Silvano Villa in 1970.

PSG - without Lionel Messi yet - lead at the break thanks to Kylian Mbappe's goal.
They have been in cruise control and should probably have put this game to bed.

PSG play the corner backwards and Abdou Diallo flicks the ball towards goal from 20 yards. I don't think it's a shot but the keeper has to tip it over.
The following corner is cleared.

Corner to PSG at the end of the half. One minute added on.

A bit of pushing and shoving after PSG midfielder Marco Verratti mistimes a tackle on Ilan Kebbal and gets booked.

Wow. Moreto Cassama is inches away from equalising. He gets the ball 20 yards out and with no real backlift and nobody expecting the shot he curls and dips one towards the top corner. Keylor Navas is beaten but it clips the post.
