It was the first time that PSG fans were able to witness Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappé starting together on home soil. The trio were all involved in the French side's underwhelming draw against Club Brugge in the Champions League in midweek, but Pochettino was pleased with the reposes that his team showed. "It's very positive for us," said the former Spurs manager. "After our difficult game against Brugge, winning again was important. "Lyon are a great team, with great players and they played well in the first half. After the goal we conceded, we had to show some character. "We have to find the balance to provide strength to the team. We continue to work on it.” It's another quick turnaround for PSG who are in league action once again on Wednesday night when they travel to Metz, who currently sit bottom of the table.
