The New Best Team?

 By: Diego Aguilar, Sports Reporter, January 6, 2022

Paris Saint Germain is one of the best teams in the world right now. They’re the biggest team in France and are absolutely dominating the French League and the European league which includes the best teams all around Europe. This team is filled with many superstars ranging from veterans of the game to up and coming youngsters. The veterans of the game include Lionel Messi, Neymar, Di Maria, and Sergio Ramos. These Veterans have been on top of the game for about 10 years winning league cups and European cups on their past teams but now they’re all together. In addition, Messi is considered to be one of the best players of all time so he is a big reason for the team's sucesss. The Youngsters of this team include Mbappe, Nun Mendes, Donnarumma, and Xavi Simmons. Kylian Mbappe is known all over the world because of how much of a name he has already made at 22. He’s won a World Cup and broke a record for being the second most expensive player of all time with a contract worth 203 million dollars. 

In Recent years PSG has grown into a football superpower. Since the year 2013, they’ve been growing in popularity and been getting the attention of many big players making them want to make the move into their team. Despite PSG being very dominant in the French League, they’ve been very unsuccessful in the Champions League (European League). In the past 5 years, they’ve only made it to one final which was in 2020, they lost the final to Bayern Munich 1-0. They’ve also been embarrassed many times like when they lost to Barcelona 6-1 in the second game after winning 4-0 in the first game which means they lost 6-5 in Aggregate.

My predictions for this year for PSG are very positive. With all the Superstars in the team and the motivation they have, I feel like they can win everything that comes in their path. They’re already up by 12 points in the French League so they dont have to worry about that as much as the Champions league which is their major goal in 2022. So I hope to see this team lift up the trophy because they deserve it.
