After a sluggish start to the match, Paris Saint-Germain has finally found the back of the net in the Coupe de France round of 32.
On PSG’s first shot on target against Pays de Cassel, Kylian Mbappe scored an effortless goal to provide the reigning Ligue 1 champions with a 1-0 lead in the contest. Nuno Mendes was the catalyst in this goal sequence; he found a waiting Mbappe in the penalty box, and he managed to dish off a crucial assist-making pass to him.
