Is Messi playing today? PSG return to action following the international break with a grudge Ligue 1 match against Lyon.

Otra vez pitos a Messi en el Parque de los Príncipes. He's been scapegoated for many of PSG's struggles and failures over this season, right or wrong. Ahead of the match against Lyon on April 2, the first match back from the international break, Messi was whistled by PSG fans, something they've done for a few weeks now. Messi in indeed in the starting lineup for PSG against Lyon on Sunday, April 2.

PSG continue their post-Champions League life as they host sputtering Lyon in a Ligue 1 showcase match at the Parc des Princes on Sunday.

PSG haven't exactly blown the doors off Ligue 1 sides this season, but it's tough to even consider Lyon in that category given they sit 10th in the table and have sputtered all year. [reports in France](https://le10sport.com/football/mercato/psg-annonce-inquietante-sur-messi-un-secret-improbable-est-revele-639718) that Messi has been contacted by Barcelona about a return, and he's still undecided on his future. The Ligue 1 title is all that's left on the table for PSG this season, so they'll go all-out to secure that silverware.

Renato Sanches lets fly at the end of a chance created by Kylian Mbappe, but his Portuguese international teammate dives to the left full-stretch to make the stop! Nuno Mendes pulls down a ball from Lionel Messi, and when he sends a cross to the front of net, it clearly hits the arm of Lyon defender Dejan Lovren. Anthony Lopes made a big save moments before that as well, and Lyon had a few good chances in front of net midway through the half. Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe both had prolific showings during the international break, and will look to bring that good form back to the club level. They lead the table by six points, and can push that to nine with a win at home.

By the end of it all, Anthony Lopes barely had a save to make as Lyon rather comfortably saw off a toothless PSG attack. The home side pushed for a way back into the contest, with Messi getting more involved. But PSG had some looks of their own, too, with Kylian Mbappe and Vitinha both missing from close range.

It is Galtier’s task to rekindle the motivation, something back-to-back home defeatssuggests he is struggling to achieve. “I found it hard to listen to (the whistles),” said Christophe Galtier. We have to change the state of mind and a lot of things too but that’s not for me to say.” Maybe everything else now pales in comparison, including PSG, particularly now their [Champions League](https://theathletic.com/football/champions-league/) hopes have been extinguished for another season.

It is also down to his teammates in terms of doing more to create more danger in the opposition penalty box.” He helped the club win the Champions League four times, the Spanish league 10 times, the Copa del Rey seven times and the Spanish Super Cup eight times. Even more since Barcelona vice-president Rafael Yuste said last week the club is in contact with its former golden child. Messi, who joined PSG in August 2021, has been embodying the team’s shortcomings in spite of pretty good statistics. PSG has lost eight of its 18 games in all competitions in 2023.
