Mbappé leads PSG to nine-goal French Cup rout at sixth-tier amateurs Revel

Revel's young supporters had implored Mbappé to make the trip to the game played at Castres – Revel's humble stadium only has capacity for 2,000 fans in the Haute-Garonne south-western region – in a video posted on social media.

Mbappé evidently enjoyed his night out in the town near Toulouse, scoring a hat-trick. Revel defender Maxence N'Guesson did get on the scoresheet but sadly for an own goal as the first half drew to a close.
