Paris Saint Germain is currently winning against Rennes, however, no Mbappé goal just yet.

Paris Saint-Germain is already playing once again, after being humiliated 4-1 against Newcastle in the UEFA Champions League 4 days ago, now the Parisian team is playing in Ligue 1, against Rennes. The match corresponds to gameweek number eight of the domestic tournament, before the game, PSG was in fifth place.

Now, Paris Saint-Germain is already winning comfortably against Rennes, by a score of 2-0 at least in the first half. The striking thing about the match is that even though Kylian Mbappé is the absolute star of the team, the French striker has not collaborated in one of the two goals so far...

Vitinha opened the scoring with a real great goal from outside the area, the Portuguese surprised everyone in the stadium with that powerful and placed shot. A few minutes later, Achraf Hakimi made it 2-0 with a header. The Moroccan right back, who is Kylian Mbappé's best friend, is having a great start to the season.

The Paris Saint-Germain coach defended Kylian Mbappé after criticism: "He is not in his best form, given the results of his team, but he is still a player with a lot of influence. All players have moments of less performance, it may be because their preparation has not been classical.

Whats next for PSG?

Now, after this match, we return to the FIFA break, well, the players will go with their national teams, and there will be no league football. Paris Saint-Germain will play this October 21 against Strasbourg, in what will represent gameweek number 9 of Ligue 1. Mbappé's team must win to get closer to AS Monaco, current leader of the tournament.
