Scorer Friday against Monaco (5-2) for the first time since his arrival at PSG, Ousmane Dembélé was challenged by Kylian Mbappé.

Mocked since the start of the season for his lack of inspiration in the box, Ousmane Dembélé took advantage of the reception of Monaco (5-2), Friday evening, at the opening of the 13th day of Ligue 1, to open his account with PSG. Author of a good match, the former Barça man distinguished himself with a high-class sequence, with a pigeon-wing control to erase Soungoutou Magassa, and a strong strike to deceive Philipp Köhn, all, 20 minutes from time.

“First of a long series we hope”

Acclaimed by the wings of the Parc des Princes, the former Rennes player rediscovered his best instincts at the right time, just before Tuesday’s crucial meeting against Newcastle in the Champions League. And Kylian Mbappé did not fail to emphasize this. “Congratulations my brother. First in a long series we hope,” the Ile-de-France striker reacted on Instagram.

“We had a very good match overall, indicated for his part Dembélé at the microphone of Prime Video. Monaco is a team that tries to play and pushed us to make a few small mistakes but that’s part of football. We got up very quickly. My goal ? It’s nice, I’m happy but the most important thing is that the team continues its momentum. I didn’t ask myself any questions, I decided to pull hard. »
