PSG is back to winning ways. The club has suffered some bitter moments early this season, but the Paris team, thanks to its redeemer Kylian Mbappe, rose back to life. The team was way down on the table for a few weeks, resulting from their slow performances early on. But now the club is winning games with Mbappe who reached an impressive milestone in their last match.

PSG is on the quest to retain the French star with them permanently. Being one of the most sought-after players in the world, Mbappe is proving his point by scoring crucial goals. But apart from that, the player is moving higher in record books and milestones.

Kylian Mbappe proves clutch in a crucial game for PSG

PSG had an important Ligue Un game as they were playing the in-form Brest team, who had a sublime start to their campaign initially. However, Mbappe’s two goals in the game proved to be the main reason for the Parisians’ jump to the top of the table. However, Mbappe unlocked another achievement, becoming the 11th-highest scorer in the Ligue 1.

Considering his age, Mbappe is running away with records rapidly. He is already the highest scorer for Paris Saint Germain with 225 goals. But the French superstar is now competing in the league’s all-time record books. Currently, with 173 goals in the French top tier, Mbappe is tied with former Nimes and AS Monaco player Hassan Akesbi. However, the highest scorer in the league is the Argentinian Delio Onnis, with 299 goals.

However, uncertainty still prevails over how long the 2018 World Cup winner will continue playing in the league. Real Madrid will again look to sign the player after their unsuccessful last attempt because of the 272 million dollars set by PSG. However, Mbappe’s focus will be on the current spell with PSG.

Mbappe’s match-winning performance lifts PSG

PSG’s match versus Brest was a highly emotional thriller. The match ended up being a partially controversial affair.

To begin with, the 17-year-old Warren Zair Emery scored a brilliant goal in the 16th minute for the league holders. Thirteen minutes after the first strike, Mbappe doubled the lead with the help of Korean international Kang-in Lee’s ball. The match got even more interesting, with Brest equalizing before and after halftime.

When everything was closing out, Randal Kolo Muani, the substitute, stole a penalty in the dying minutes of the game that saw Mbappe score. The host goalkeeper, Marco Bizot, initially stopped the shot. However, Mbappe’s presence of mind to follow up saw him reach the milestone and bury it for PSG. PSG has now climbed to 2nd on the table, just a point behind Nice.
