The money? Many times it doesn't matter. The entire team in Bruges costs less than Kylian Mbappé's pass; even so, the Belgian team tied (1-1) to Lionel Messi's Paris Saint Germain, within the framework of the first day of the 2021/2022 UEFA Champions League edition.

According to trasnfermarkt, 150.30 million euros is the total market value that Bruges has; Noa Lang is his most expensive player -22 million-; Of those who started at PSG, only Ander Herrera and Keylor Navas are cheaper than Nao. The reason: age.

On the other hand, the number is completely higher: 997, 25 million euros is the total value of Paris Saint-Germain; the most expensive footballer is Mbappé (160 million). And if compared in percentage, the entire squad in Bruges is worth 15% of what PSG costs.

The truth is that on the night of Belgium, the obligation was completely Paris Saint Germain. However, Bruges raised a perfect match, with which he knew how to annul the French Dream Team. Closing spaces and narrowing lines, he did not let the rival play. And in addition, he used a curious tactic rarely seen: He did not make any changes during the game, except in the last minute of play, already in the added time.
