The latest hot Ligue 1 files on the end of the transfer window

Paris Saint-Germain successfully enters the Champions League. Last night at the Parc des Princes, the capital club won against Borussia Dortmund (2-0). We had to wait until the second half to see the Ile-de-France residents make the difference thanks to two goals from Kylian Mbappé (1-0, 49th) and Achraf Hakimi (2-0, 58th).

Thanks to his penalty against the Germans, the Parisian striker now has 35 goals with PSG in the Champions League and thus equals the number of pawns scored by Thierry Henry in the colors of Arsenal. Although there is still a way to go to reach Karim Benzema (78 goals with Real Madrid in C1), Kylian Mbappé has nevertheless found the net for the 7th consecutive season in the Champions League. Before him, only Edinson Cavani had achieved such a feat with PSG.
