Paris Saint-Germain has opened up the second half of its Ligue 1 home fixture against AS Saint-Etienne in convincing fashion.

After Kylian Mbappe scored in the opening stages of the second half, he wound up playing the role of a playmaker as he assisted Danilo Pereira for PSG’s third goal of the match.

Oh stop it, Kylian Mbappe 😵

Already has two goals, so he throws a sublime outside-of-the-boot assist into the mix!

This sure is redemption for Pereira, especially as he was on the wrong end of the opening goal of this match.
