ORnot one of the best crosses in the history of the Champions League. Face to face two of the best teams in the world. The Paris Saint-Germain of the magic trident, Leo Messi, Kylian Mbapp and Neymar Jr.before the king of the competition and what he wants next to Carlo Ancelotti to command again, Real Madrid. Party in which if there are names that monopolize spotlights (and more with the doubts with Benzema) are Kylian Mbappwhich you receive in your Paris native to Madrid, and a Vinicius Junior eager to continue with a 2021-22 among the world elite. A ‘Park of the Princes‘ (from football to come) in the Park of the Princes.
Because Kylian Mbapp and Vinicius Jr. are being the leaders of two champion projects. There are plenty of football motifs (and sentimental ones too, with siren songs from Thorn Shell to the wizard bondy), and 2021-22 has shown that they want and can rule. The Frenchman has had to pull a PSG with Messi from minus to plus and a Neymar with injuries. While the former flamingo he has raised his level in front of the goal and in generating opportunities to be the image of LaLiga.
The data says that Mbapp is the leader of PSG. Sum 21 goals and 16 assists (31 games) in all competitions (Ligue 1, Champions League and Coupe de France), especially when Messi is still looking to find his best level and Neymar reach the European crosses between cottons. 37, in total, in an offensive production in which the ’30’ added 15 (seven goals, eight assists) as the ideal pair for a total of 52 goals produced.
By age (23 and 21), characteristics and moment in the game (more with the doubts about the physical state of Benzema), the ‘prince‘ of Real Madrid for the match in Paris is Vinicius Jnior. There are 14 goals and ten assists (between the League, Champions, Cup and Super Cup), among which there are at Barcelona in the semifinal of Riyadh, for example. With the great society together with a Benzema who without injury was the clear reference (24 goals and nine assists) of the leader of LaLiga and champion of their Champions group.
Together they add 57 points, five more than the society betweenMessi and Mbapp. Also, his third limb of the trident is also working, since Marco Asensio has been decisive both in the League (against Granada, for example), and in the Champions League (against Inter at home). In addition, on the green, Madrid has had great moments, while PSG continues to leave doubts.
The comparison between both young stars also reveals the growth of Vinicius face to goalkeeper The ’20’ of the White House he has an effectiveness of 47.2%, with which almost half of his shots go on goal. mbpp it stays at 38%, so more of the Frenchman’s shots don’t go between the three suits.
Change the thing in production per game that ends in a goal, because mbpp he scores more goals per game (0.67 to 0.46) and gives more assists (0.51 to 0.31). Even so, equality is remarkable and they must rely on partners. A land in which Real Madrid is superior to its French rival.
Determinants for your teams
The numbers make it clear that Mbapp and Vinicius Jnior leave as flagships for Paris-Saint Germain and Real Madrid in the first leg of the round of 16. Also what happens on the field. For example, the last game of Vinicius (against Villarreal) it was shown how its overflow is fundamental. He suffered fouls of all kinds and conditions, but he never gave up the ball. The ball did not go in, but his condition as leader does not change.
And with Kylian Mbapp any qualifier can serve. It is the man who holds the PSG. Before him Rennes (which in theory the capital should win) I saved the furniture with shots to the stick, occasions and even somewhat annulled. Finally, in minute 93 he found the door with a shot at the long post of the Breton goal.
And after Bernabu?
The one in the Park of the Princes It is the first stop of a tie with historical overtones. At the Santiago Bernabu, who returns to a great tie and from whom great things are expected, will decide which team passes and can dominate Europe. An elimination round is also symbolic, as it can represent the passing of Mbapp to Madrid next summer.
Vinicius will be there, and he has always praised the Frenchman, with whom he has a good relationship. “We all want to play with him,” he said in October 2021. Forgetting conflicts in the band, or fighting egos. Until that time comes, all you have to do is wait. At the moment, they are the two ‘princes‘ football rivals and are measured in the Parisian park to find out who’s boss.
