Lionel Messi lays down behind PSG wall for Man City free kick in Champions League. Lionel Messi enjoyed his finest night as a Paris Saint-Germain player so far against Manchester City in the Champions League on Tuesday night. The legendary forward scored his first goal for the Parisians after joining the club last month. And what a goal it was, too. Messi received the ball near the halfway line and darted towards goal before slamming the ball past Ederson into the top corner of the net. As some football fans pointed out, Messi is probably the main reason why so many teams defend free-kicks with a player lying down behind walls these days. It was a moment of magic from the 34-year-old, who left Barcelona abruptly in the summer. Messi’s goal helped PSG secure a 2-0 victory over Pep Guardiola’s side. Idrissa Gueye had given the hosts the lead at the Parc des Princes in the eighth minute. As PSG closed out the game, Messi had the unexpected task of laying behind the wall as Man City prepared to take a free-kick.
