The match started cautiously, with both teams looking to impose their game plan. However, after the half-hour mark, the game exploded into life. Neymar opened the scoring for PSG with a clinical finish, only for Lens to equalize through Florian Sotoca. PSG then took the lead once more through Hugo Ekitike, but Lens refused to be outdone and leveled again through Kevin Danso. With the game on a knife-edge, Messi took matters into his own hands. The Argentine maestro conjured up a moment of magic in the 88th minute, curling a sublime free-kick over the Lens wall and into the top corner. The Parc des Princes erupted in a chorus of celebration as Messi’s masterpiece sealed the victory for PSG. In the dying embers of the match, Lens were awarded a penalty. Sotoca stepped up to take it, but his effort was brilliantly saved by PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. The miss proved to be costly, as PSG held on to secure a pulsating win. Messi’s performance was a timely reminder of his enduring quality. The 35-year-old, who joined PSG from Barcelona last summer, has struggled to find his best form at times this season. However, against Lens, he showed that he is still capable of producing moments of match-winning brilliance. The victory was a vital one for PSG. It keeps them firmly in the race for the Ligue 1 title, five points clear of second-placed Marseille. It also boosts their confidence ahead of their Champions League round of 16 second leg against Real Madrid on Wednesday. For Lens, it was a heartbreaking defeat. They had fought bravely but ultimately fell short against the class of PSG and Messi. However, they can take pride in their performance and remain in the hunt for a European spot. As the final whistle blew, Messi was mobbed by his teammates. The victory was a testament to his enduring greatness and the belief that he can still inspire PSG to major silverware this season.
