On Wednesday evening, Paris Saint-Germain were held to a 2-2 draw away at RB Leipzig in the Champions League.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side rarely looked convincing despite the vast difference in resources between the clubs. Georginio Wijnaldum scored twice in an eventful game at the Red Bull Arena. To be honest, they were fortunate that the hosts did not capitalize on an early siege of the Parisien goal.
Leipzig, who had only one point from four games, had taken the lead in the eighth minute through Christopher Nkunku, and they had a chance to double it when Andre Silva’s penalty was saved in the 12th minute.

However, substitute Dominik Szoboszlai scored from the spot in second-half stoppage time to save a point for the Germans.
The French team is second in the table with eight points, one point behind Manchester City, despite the absence of Lionel Messi.
Club Brugge is on four points, while Leipzig is on one and will be a semi-finalist in 2020.
