Kylian Mbappe Scores Birthday Brace As Paris Saint-Germain End Year On Top Of Ligue 1
Kylian Mbappe marked his 25th birthday with a brace as Paris Saint-Germain beat Metz 3-1 in Ligue 1 on Wednesday to reach the halfway stage of the season five points clear at the top of the table. PSG, who had been held 1-1 at Lille at the weekend, laboured in the first half before Vitinha opened the scoring early in the second half by turning in a cross from Lee Kang-in. Mbappe then took centre stage by making it 2-0 with a superb strike in off the underside of the crossbar from the edge of the area.
