Even though Kylian Mbappe did not start in Paris Saint-Germain’s Coupe de France fixture against Lille, he still managed to have the biggest impact among all attacking talents within the team.
In the late stages of the match, Mbappe found himself in a solo counter-attacking sequence against Lille’s defense. The French forward hustled on through from the middle third of the pitch into Lille’s penalty box for arguably one of the best solo goals of the season.
Mbappe’s speed was simply too much for Lille’s defensive line. More so, his chip finish was one that Lille surely did not see coming.
With this win for PSG, the attention for the side now moves towards the upcoming Ligue 1 fixture against Olympique Lyonnais.
