Paris Saint-Germain's star squad failed to avoid their first defeat in the league this season on Sunday, raising new doubts about the team's cohesion. PSG suffered a deserved defeat with a score of 0-2 against Rennes during the eighth round of Ligue 1. The team's new star, Argentine Lionel Messi, failed to score again in the French league, despite coming close with a stunning free kick that hit the crossbar.
Although the Parisian club has achieved 7 victories in the league, they are "struggling" during their matches, even those they win, which was evident during the encounter with Rennes on Sunday. Doubts have increased regarding the "chemistry" among the star players Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappé, as well as the legitimacy of Argentine coach Mauricio Pochettino's position.
