Mbappé comes into play and everything is better

He started on the bench and only came on at the hour mark but his contribution was crucial in this Parisian success at La Beaujoire.

Visibly annoyed when he got off the bus, the Frenchman decided to respond in the best possible way.

With his running and dribbling, he once again weighed on the opposing defense in just 30 minutes.

Well inspired in the 75th minute, he decided to make a small bridge in the area before being unbalanced and obtaining the penalty.

He transforms the latter without trembling in the face to allow his team to make the break a quarter from the end (0-2, 76th).

If he is going to leave PSG at the end of this season, for the moment he is indeed present and we cannot miss him.

Pallois showed the way

The FC Nantes defender put in a huge performance.

As usual, with a lot of heart and commitment, he threw himself at all the balls to repel the Parisian offensives for a long time.

Nicolas Pallois perfectly fulfilled his role as captain for the Nantes team to keep them alive in this meeting.

He even almost scored the goal of the day, with a volley from 35 meters after recovering from a long Parisian ball.

He will have been impassable (3/3 in the duels) and like his team, will have given everything until the final whistle.

Donnarumma impeccable for its 100th

The Italian goalkeeper will have secured his 100th in Parisian goals.

Gianluigi Donnarumma, little used in the first half, remained attentive throughout the match.

Even if he didn't have to work very hard, he often went out to catch balls that were too long, thus reassuring his entire block.

On his line, he was perfect (6 saves) and also raised well (15/15 in raises with the feet and 8/8 with the hand).

FLOPS

Augusto, too many mistakes

The Brazilian midfielder will have lacked technical accuracy and lucidity.

In the first half, he is confined to more defensive work with his coach's request to have a low and very compact block.

In a slightly more offensive role in the second act, the 27-year-old midfielder tried to bring more entertainment without much success.

It is also he who makes the mistake in the area on Kylian Mbappé (0-2, 76th).

His teammates will not be able to recover from this new goal conceded and concede another defeat at home this season.

Kolo Muani again out of time

Positioned in the axis of this Parisian attack to start this meeting, Rand Kolo Muani will have had difficulty weighing on this Nantes defense.

Wanted in the air most of the time in the first act, the former La Beaujoire player won too few duels (1/6) and lost too many balls (10 in total).

When he returned from the locker room, with the entry of Gonçalo Ramos, he returned to the left flank where he was able to touch a few more balls.

He is finally replaced by Hakimi (62nd).
