In a dramatic encounter at the Paris Saint-Germain Academy Campus, the U19 side of the capital club was held to a 2‑2 draw by Racing Levallois U19 in the French U19 Youth League. The match, played on 8 May 2026, saw PSG fight back twice but fail to secure a vital home win, leaving them with mixed emotions as the season enters its decisive phase.
First‑Half Action
Racing Levallois stunned the home crowd by taking the lead inside the opening quarter of an hour. A quick counter‑attack caught the PSG defence off guard, and the visitors’ forward slotted home calmly from 12 yards. PSG responded well, however, and equalised just before the half‑hour mark. A well‑worked set piece saw centre‑back Lucas Mbappé rise highest to head in a corner, making it 1‑1.
Second‑Half Drama
The second half followed a similar pattern. Levallois regained the lead shortly after the restart following a defensive mix‑up, capitalising on a loose pass in midfield to score with a clinical finish. PSG pushed forward relentlessly and eventually levelled again with fifteen minutes remaining, when substitute winger Ethan Kassi curled a delightful shot into the far corner from the edge of the area.
Key Performers
- Lucas Mbappé (PSG U19) – The young defender was not only solid at the back but also dangerous in attack, scoring the equaliser and winning several aerial duels.
- Racing Levallois’ midfield – The visitors’ energetic midfield duo disrupted PSG’s rhythm throughout, providing the platform for their two goals.
Table Impact
The draw leaves PSG U19 in a mid‑table position, but they remain within touching distance of the top five. Racing Levallois will consider this a valuable point on the road as they look to climb away from the relegation zone.
What’s Next
PSG U19 face a tough away trip to Lyon next week, while Levallois host Marseille U19. Both sides will hope to turn promising performances into maximum points.
