PSG 0-1 Lyon: Lionel Messi’s name whistled by own fans as PSG lose again

Lionel Messi’s name was met by whistles from some Paris Saint-Germain fans before they suffered their seventh defeat of 2023 at home to Lyon.

The Argentine, linked with Barcelona when his contract expires this summer, has made two Champions League last 16 exits in his two seasons at the club.

Whistles could be heard as his name was already announced, although some fans chanted his name in support.

Lyon forward Bradley Barcola scored the only goal as PSG lost.

The game started 10 minutes late because Leon’s bus couldn’t fit under a bridge so they had to drive around the capital.

Alexandre Lacazette had earlier hit a post with a penalty for the ninth-placed visitors.

PSG’s all-time top scorer Kylian Mbappe almost saved a point late on, but his shot went wide.

The perennial French champions are now just six points clear of Lens and Marseille with nine games remaining.

PSG have lost seven of their 18 matches in all competitions since the end of the World Cup, having gone 22 matches unbeaten before the break.

Messi is in talks with PSG about extending his contract, but Barcelona have also approached him about a return to the club where he spent the majority of his career. He has scored 29 goals in 67 games for the club.
