Kylian Mbappe had a rough game last night. The French superstar was once again on fire for his team but failed to bag three crucial points at the end of the night. PSG were up against OGC Nice in their latest Ligue1 fixture at home. While OGC Nice took the early lead thanks to a goal from Tareem Moffi, Mbappe quickly leveled things 7 minutes later.

OGC Nice, with momentum at hand, doubled their lead with Gaetan Laborde’s strike in the 53rd minute. Moffi then went on to provide his side with a two-goal lead in the 68th minute. Following the goal, Moffi took off his shirt to celebrate the goal. In response, Kylian Mbappe did not seem pleased with the celebration as he could be seen berating his opponent.

 

The Paris man’s rant is likely to stem from the defeat his side suffered last night. While the Frenchman was right on the mark, his fellow teammates failed to step up to the occasion. Mbappe has been in great form following his return, with the player recently joining Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo for an elite achievement.

Mbappe joins Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo in elite list

Kylian Mbappe has set the Ligue 1 on fire following his return to PSG. The player has already become the leading goalscorer in the league with 7 goals to his name. The Frenchman fired off two goals in his last outing, which helped him join an elite soccer list alongside the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi.

Following his stunning performance, Mbappe now has consecutive goal contributions for a string of 15 games. Despite his outstanding performances, PSG has struggled as a unit this season. The defending Ligue 1 champions have managed to find just 2 wins in their first five league games, with two games ending in a draw, while their last ended in a defeat. The side has just 8 points to their name which is their poorest form in the first five games since 2010/11.
