    Match report : Munich - Paris
    
    Brilliant is the only word that I would use to describe the following
    aspects of the Paris game ...
    
      Team play
      Spirit
      Defense
      Substitutions
    
    And of course the GOAL OF THE SEASON from George Weah to win the game.
    JPP (Papin to you non French guys) said after the game that Munich were
    beaten by the better team!
    
    The goal : Weah was pressing, challenging, tackling, got the ball and
    headed for goal, laid it off to a team mate who gave it back (neat
    1-2).  Weah made a tricky change of direction, leaving a couple of
    defenders stranded.  [This all started midway into the Munich half, on
    the left touchline]  He then went fast for the left edge of the Munich
    box, confronted by a defender he sold him a great dummy, making him
    think he would go left and away from goal.  Instead, he broke back to
    the right, steadied himself and from about the edge of the box, blasted
    the ball between defender, left post and goalkeeper (no hope of
    touchiung it, let alone stopping it) for a terrific goal.
    
    This is some team!!

    Agree totally with the summation of the goal - it was stunning.
    The rest of the match was pretty boring though (IMO), however when
    the goal came, it made sitting through the rest of it worth while.
    Papin was next to useless. The PSG goalie had an excellent game,
    especially towards the end. In the last 4 minutes though (when Munich
    realised they we're well beaten), PSG turned on the style, and were
    playing exhibition stuff - excellent.

    Paul,
                                              
    I can say with my hand on heart, that they didn't even come close 
    to the standards expected at Hillsborough.

    George Weah's goal against Bayern last night was a beauty indeed.
    Individual effort supported by teammates, the best combination. For
    those who do not know Mister George, he is a Liberian international
    which is the reason why he is not (and will never be) world famous. At
    age 28 he is now flourishing, one the most exciting strikers of all
    time.
    
    Check out that goal on your local TV!
    
    Paris SG are the only team in all groups to have won all their games.
    They are now waiting for results in the MU/Barca/Gothenburg/Gala group
    to know which team they will face in March. Already they know they will
    play the second leg in Paris.
    
    They can now focus on the League, with only 4 points behind Nantes.

I saw him play for Monaco (v St.Etienne) about 4 years.  Incredible skill
and could beat players not probs.  Trouble then was he couldn't hit a barn
door from 2 feet!!

Seems to be incredible now in the Champions League highlights from ITV.

Mind you he did bugger all against Arsenal last year.

Hope he continues for an Ajax v PSG final.  Should be some game (but who to
support?)

    Poor old JPP - on the losing side at Milan against Marseille,
    and now on the losing side at Bayern against PSG.   Perhaps he
    should have stayed in France ..

    Its very quiet in this note today, after another fantastic performance
    by PSG and George Weah.  Two cracking goals from him, and another that
    he set up for some continous complainer who also got himself booked!  I
    used to think the said moaner was one of the best players in France,
    not any more...
    
    Anyway Paris played excellent football, and won 4-1 in front of an
    ecstatic crowd (which I tried to join but couldn't get tickets, sob!).
    They finish the group with a maximum 12 points, and can be claimed as
    the best club side in Europe at this stage.
