Man United flop Angel di Maria continues his sensational form at PSG
Paris Saint-Germain were victorious on Tuesday night, beating EA Guingamp 3-0 at the Parc des Princes, but it was far from a convincing performance-and one we have seen a number of times over the last few years.
Pastore netted in the 18th minute and fellow Argentine Angel Di Maria doubled the tally in the 77th before Ibrahimovic wrapped up the victory six minutes from time to put PSG on 17 points from seven games after two consecutive draws.
The 27-year-old has made a bright start to his career with the French club and left at sly dig at his former side for not being involved in the Champions League last term.
Jocelyn Gourvennec’s side beat Ajaccio 2-1 on Saturday to climb to eighth in the standings and move to within five points of league leaders PSG.
Zlatan Ibrahimovic has yet to open his account for PSG this term, but the Swede, who turns 34 next month, moved to allay fears he is in decline despite his laboured displays following his return from injury.
“Edinson is a player that scores 30-odd goals every season”, Blanc said of Cavani. “Great players always find a way to understand each other. I’m happy for the players because they were rewarded for their efforts”.
Blanc was pleased to see Ibrahimovic back looking closer to fitness after his recent problem.
