Match Report
Lorenzo Insigne scored from the penalty spot to earn Napoli a point in their Champions League clash with Paris Saint-Germain on Tuesday night.
Juan Bernat gave the French side the lead just before half-time after Kylian Mbappe picked him out from the left-wing and the Spaniard produced a finish as he tumbled to the ground.
Jose Callejon seized on a poor touch from Thiago Silva before being brought down by a combination of the Brazilian and Gianluigi Buffon. Insigne took the spot kick and buried it into the corner.

this is really a group of death. who is going to go through between Liverpool, psg, and napoli we don't know. every one still have a huge chance of qualifying. but honestly psg can't afford to loose out on the round of 16 with all the money spent on Neymar and mbappe.

I thought PSG had it😯, Good match from both teams👏👏👏 But PSG you guys might get kmocked out in group stage, you guys got to show more effort😐 Come on Neymar, U are so talented But try harder Mbappe, what happened to you, since you played striker you should have been pressuring defenders harder😴 So Come on paris, We have to win next time or We are knocked out😕

so nobody here sees that psg and nappies as more edge in this group than any other teams... psg has Liverpool to play at home and away to redstar and you all think they are in danger... while nappies also has away to Liverpool and home at redstar, Liverpool has the two giant to play away to psg and home to nappies, even you people can't right of redstar because they haven't lose any game in the home this season in champion and they still have one home game to play so you people can't right anybody of in that group it's indeed a group of death. left to me I think Liverpool is more in danger in this group because none of the two teams is going to play i think three point is certain for them

This was the match of the day. Excellent match. Second half, Napoli was way better. I am loving this Napoli team a lot. Their style and quality of play impress me a lot. Great attacking. Kouliably is becoming one of the best centre back in the world. He just marked Mbappe with easiness. Good Luck Napoli.

That referee was so bad. Var is needed in every fifa competition to stop bias such as that referee had. Napoli’s pen was so offside a schoolboy could have called it. Also somehow all of the referees weren’t watching the “not a penalty” on bernat, because that was clear as day. They would not call out fouls on Neymar but called phantom fouls on verratti and the likes. What a shame that poor refereeing ruined what was such a great game.

Deserved result. Neither side were exceptional. PSG first half were better and Napoli second half were better. I think with the chances Napoli had, had that been someone like Mbappe on the end instead of Fabian etc them they could have won the game. At the end of the day the true winner is Napoli cos unless Liverpool beats them and PSG beats Red Star then they're at the top. I see Liverpool drawing and Red star losing to PSG. PSG and Napoli likely to go to round of 16...

No doubt this group is best in UCL this year. Now group become more complex. Any team can make through even Red Belgrade has good chance. Could not ask for more. Look like the group script is written by GOT writer George R Martin.
