Messi and PSG stars jeered despite win over Bordeaux after European exit
Paris Saint-Germain beat Ligue 1 strugglers Bordeaux 3-0 on Sunday amid incessant whistles directed at stars including Lionel Messi and Neymar from home fans furious at another European exit.
Amid a gloomy atmosphere in the French capital, only Kylian Mbappe, who scored both goals in the last-16 Champions League defeat to Real Madrid, escaped the wrath of the fans.
On Sunday, Mbappe was again on target, scoring the opening goal after 24 minutes with Neymar and Leandro Paredes adding two more in the second half.
The Parisians hold a 15-point lead on second-placed Nice and are on track to equal Saint-Etienne's record of 10 French titles, but the frustration of their home fans spilled over.
Seven-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi was booed as never before in his career, even in the rare bad times with Argentina, and whistled at every touch of the ball.
Coach Mauricio Pochettino said the players had greeted the hostility "with sadness".
"No-one who loves PSG, its colours, and who feels the frustration of elimination, can experience it in any other way.
"Sadness. I think that's the right word. The sadness of experiencing an afternoon like this here at the Parc des Princes.
"Messi and Neymar? We are all affected, we understand the disappointment and frustration, which we also share. But we are responsible. We only have to assume it as a team and we will be united until the end."
Ligue 1 is Pochettino's side's only objective this season.
"We are satisfied with the performance of the team in difficult circumstances, the team responded, with a professional performance, with a 3-0," added the Argentine.
Mbappe blasted in the first goal from Georginio Wijnaldum's pass cross in a move also involving Messi. It was the World Cup winner's 15th goal of the season in Ligue 1.
Neymar added a second seven minutes after the break with Messi again sending through for Achraf Hakimi who teed up the Brazilian to finish off.
Leandro Paredes got on the scoresheet for the first time this season after an hour blasting the ball into the top of the net.
Bordeaux have lost seven of their ten away games this season, and sit bottom of the table.
