Mbappe double helps PSG beat Monaco
Kylian Mbappe struck twice as Paris St-Germain continued their dominance of Ligue 1
with victory over Monaco.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side were fortunate early on when Monaco’s Sofiane Diop struck the post.
But when Djibril Sidibe caught Angel di Maria in the box, Mbappe swept home the resulting penalty with ease.
The Frenchman then whipped home his 100th Ligue 1 goal for PSG and finishing ruthlessly after Lionel Messi’s pass.
Monaco ended the night with more shots at goal than their hosts but ultimately their errors were punished.
Such form has built a 13-point lead at the top of the table over Marseille who have a game in hand and 14 points
to Rennes in third.
Monaco, who went into the fixture off back-to-back wins, will take some pride from parts of their display and
remain eighth in the table.
