Racing slashing the comeback in Paris



Racing Santander rescued a point in the Parc des Princes to a draw (2-2) against Paris Saint-Germain thanks to a great both Gonzalo Colsa which allows them to continue to dream of stay in the UEFA Cup. The second point is reached Cantabrians in the three matches, which know no victory, making their survival is still complex, just a lack of an encounter against Manchester City.



The body of Juan Ramon Lopez Muniz came to be much below two on the scoreboard because of a defense too weak, but an own goal in both Traore and the great goal of the match balanced Colsa. Spaniards started cold, because of the low temperatures of the French capital and the small audience in the stands. The curve occupied by the Amateur Racing became so loud as the two funds of the Parisian fans.



The defensive weakness of Cantabrians was left to see especially in the first half, when given too many facilities to a PSG that he needed. Within six minutes, a ruling Lacen left presto the ball so that the Serbian Mateja Kezman opened the scoring. The former Serbian striker of Atletico Madrid won its second both with the French club shirt, both in European competition.



On both stretched to the Muñiz, but were hardly capable of creating scoring opportunities in the area rival. PSG remained which appeared to carry more danger to the area of Toño, thanks to incursions by former Levantine Péguy Luyindula and Kezman. The Serbian brown Pancrate a good pass in 17 minutes, while the racing had to settle for distant shots, like that of Colsa in the 23rd minute, or moves to the ball stopped.



After the half hour, the company Luyindula-Kezman returned to give their results and the Cantabrian defense contributed to the end goal in the first. A minute later, were on the verge of repeating the play, but this time not rightly the goal. Racing has increased the pressure in midfield, and forward lines are closer to the area.



But only reduced distances with a goal in itself after an absence of Traoré Garay launched by the French defender sent his own nets when he tried to reject the head. The goal gave wings to the Cantabrians, which showed especially at the exit of the locker room. They seemed to another computer, faster and more robust, much higher than the French.



Colsa was responsible for moving this domain to score thanks to a great shot away which was coló in the meshes of Landreau. The tie woke up the team and Serrano was able to advance Santander four minutes later, firing long, that licked the right pole of the goal gala. The encounter was balanced in all respects, and Parisians were again approaching the area Toño.



Racing ended the encounter playing counterattack, but were unable to surprise the French. In the last breath Racing enjoyed its best chance in a ball that was passing the finish line in Paris but did not enter. The cries of "What the Sardinero vote!" sounded at the Parc des Princes to greet the gathering of racing.
