Kylian Mbappe

Kylian Mbappe scored one goal and made another as Paris Saint-Germain beat Patrick Vieira's Strasbourg 3-0 in Ligue 1 on Saturday but it is unbeaten Nice who are top of the table after a 1-0 victory over Marseille.

Mbappe opened the scoring for PSG with a 10th-minute penalty and set up Carlos Soler to make it 2-0 just after the half-hour mark on a windy day in Paris. The reigning champions added a third in the 77th minute courtesy of Fabian Ruiz.
