Argentine forward Lionel Messi is continuing to shine as a playmaker for Paris Saint-Germain.
In the late stages of the first half of PSG’s Ligue 1 fixture against AS Saint-Etienne, Messi dished out a stout pass over to Kylian Mbappe, who was making a run inside the penalty box. From there, Mbappe took on a one-touch shot attempt and scored with ease.
