Newcastle United has started its return to the Champions League in impressive fashion, achieving a historic win against the powerful Paris Saint-Germain (PSG). This return to the European elite after two decades has generated euphoria in the English club, which did not miss the opportunity to mock the poor performance of Kylian Mbappé, the star of the rival team.
In an unforgettable start to the campaign, Newcastle added a valuable point against AC Milan at San Siro (0-0) and then dominated PSG convincingly at home (4-1). This brilliant performance has put the Premier League club at the top of Group F with 4 points, leaving behind giants such as PSG, AC Milan and Borussia Dortmund.
One of the key factors in the overwhelming victory over PSG was the lackluster performance of Kylian Mbappé. The French star was virtually absent at St. James’ Park, receiving heavy criticism in his native country for his performance. Newcastle did not miss the opportunity to make fun of this bad night for the striker.
The English club shared a photograph on their social networks in which Dan Burn, Fabian Schar and Kylian Mbappé appear. The description read: “Two players in this image scored last night, a clear allusion to Mbappé’s poor performance during the match.
Newcastle with hopes in the Champions League
With this overwhelming start in the Champions League, Newcastle has filled its fans with hope and enthusiasm, who dream of advancing to the round of 16. Meanwhile, PSG will seek to recover in Ligue 1 after their European setback against Rennes next Sunday. Football always has surprises in store for us, and this unexpected victory for Newcastle over the powerful PSG has left a clear message: in football, nothing is written and every match is an opportunity to redefine expectations and surprise the world.
