Paris Saint-Germain had to settle for a 1-1 draw at Benfica after struggling for long spells in their UEFA Champions League 2022-23 game on Wednesday despite another well-struck goal from Lionel Messi. Benfica started with an intense and high press that unsettled PSG in the early stages, until Messi broke the deadlock against the run of the play with his 127th goal in Europe’s top competition. The goal came after a move involving the entire “MNM” attacking trio as Messi combined with Kylian Mbappé and Neymar before curling in a first-time shot with his left foot. Benfica leveled before halftime thanks to an own goal from Danilo Pereira.
