Ligue 1: Mbappe Hits Late Winner as PSG Edge Nice to go Top

Kylian Mbappe scored a late winner as Paris St-Germain beat Nice to go top of the Ligue 1 table.

Lionel Messi’s 20th free kick, which left Kasper Schmeichel rooted to the spot, gave the French champions the lead.

Gaetan Laborde scored his first Nice goal from close range to give the visitors a surprise equaliser.

But substitute Mbappe struck in the 83rd minute to seal PSG’s seventh straight win in all competitions.

The French player, who replaced Hugo Ekitike shortly before the hour mark, put himself in the cut of Nordi Mukiele.

PSG are yet to lose since Christophe Galtier, who managed Nice last season, replaced Mauricio Pochettino as manager this summer.

They lead with eight wins and one draw from nine games. Marseille, who dropped to second place, are unbeaten with seven wins in two matches.
