PSG's Nuno Mendes Stars in 2-1 Champions League Win Over Barcelona
PSG secured a 2-1 victory over Barcelona in the Champions League, with left-back Shawn Mendes playing a pivotal role. Mendes, praised by teammate Achraf Hakimi as the world's best left back, assisted in one of PSG's goals and contained Barcelona's Lamine Yamal for much of the match.
PSG's impressive performance saw them become the first team to win three consecutive away games against Barcelona in major European competitions. Mendes' impact was significant, marking his third consecutive victory over Barcelona as a left-back for PSG. Despite a promising start, Yamal struggled against Mendes, who kept him largely at bay. Yamal's frustration led to a yellow card after a foul on Lucas Hernández.
PSG's win over Barcelona was a testament to their defensive solidity, with Mendes' performance being a standout. The victory sees them maintain their impressive record against Barcelona in the Champions League.
