Corsica, France.
Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe combined for a sublime performance that culminated in a sublime goal from the Argentine star as PSG won at the Stade François-Coty in Ajaccio on Matchday 12 of Ligue 1 in France.
‘La Pulga’ from Rosario led Paris Saint-Germain to their tenth win, leading the French league with 32 points, six ahead of Lorient, eight ahead of Lens and nine over Olympique de Marseille.
The Argentine pacer provided two assists to Mbappe, who provided him with the pass for Leo’s goal. Messi’s rapport with the Frenchman worked like a charm.
Messi made it 0-2 for Paris in a five-star combination between the two stars, with Mbappé finishing with a taquito pass and a dribble past the local goalkeeper with his left foot. What a goal!
Leo Messi has 6 goals and 9 assists in just 11 games played in Ligue 1 this season. Mbappe was outplayed by Argentina, who was widely praised by the public throughout the tournament.
With his goal and two assists, ‘La Pulga’ maintained their good streak from the start of the season. Before the match ended three children jumped onto the pitch to take photos with the Argentine.
“People come to the stadium to watch Leo play, he is the best player in the history of football. He likes to play with others, has the character to play for others, and is very generous. He was fantastic with the second goal,” praised PSG coach Christophe Galtier.
