On Sunday night, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) continued their impressive form as they defeated Ajaccio 3-0 in the Ligue 1 round 18 match. The victory was all the more impressive given that both Kylian Mbappé and Lionel Messi scored two goals each for the reigning champions.
Mbappé has been in scintillating form this season, scoring 16 goals in 15 games so far. He showed his class once again on Sunday, scoring twice in just over half an hour of action. His first goal came from a sublime chip over the wall, before he added another shortly after the break with a powerful shot from outside the box.
Messi, meanwhile, had a quiet start to the game but began to find his rhythm towards the end. He scored the second goal of the match with a deft finish, before adding another late on to secure the win for PSG.
The victory means that PSG now have a comfortable lead at the top of the table, and it is clear that they will be hard to beat going forward. Mbappé and Messi have already established themselves as key players for the club, and it will be interesting to see how they develop further under new manager Mauricio Pochettino.
Overall, it was another dominant performance from PSG, who continue to dominate their domestic league. They will hope to maintain their winning run when they face Nice next week, before looking ahead to the Champions League group stages.
