PSG arrived at the 2021-22 UEFA Champions League as heavy favorites to fight for the coveted continental trophy. With Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe in a star-studded roster, Paris Saint-Germain are undoubtedly one of the strongest sides on the planet right now.

However, their European journey hasn’t begun as expected. Mauricio Pochettinoā€˜s men put themselves in front against Club Brugge through Ander Herrera but the hosts hit back with a Hans Vanaken accurate shot.

The clock kept on running and Paris couldn’t find the way to take the lead again. They left Belgium feeling like they dropped two points against a weaker – but brave – opponent. Needless to say, fans were harsh on social media.
