Well, folks, what a game! Paris Saint-Germain emerged victorious at the Allianz Riviera, defeating Nice 2-0. A late Sergio Ramos goal sealed the win for the visitors.
The match was a battle of contrasting styles. Nice, playing at home, kept a high tempo, creating a lot of chances. They had a higher shot count (21 shots) but struggled to convert. PSG, on the other hand, controlled the ball better (54% possession) and were efficient when it came to scoring their two goals. They also managed a few substitutions to keep the pressure.
The atmosphere was electric, and the first half was dominated by the home side. Nice put serious pressure on the PSG defense and nearly scored. Ultimately it was a superb goal by Lionel Messi in the 26th minute, assisted by Nuno Mendes, that put PSG ahead.
The second half started with more urgency from PSG. The pressure was on, and a late substitution by the home side seemed like a game-changer. However, Ramos added an important goal in the 77th minute.
Ultimately, PSG's skill and composure proved too much for Nice, securing a hard-fought victory.
