Triple scorer against US Revel two weeks ago, Kylian Mbappé led PSG to victory against Orléans this Saturday in the Coupe de France (1-4).
Kylian Mbappé doesn’t know small matches. For the captain of the Blues, the lower division clubs encountered in the Coupe de France are respected. Including when the thermometer shows negative temperatures and the lawn, barely changed, is not completely set. In Orléans this Saturday evening, the boss of PSG made the talk. As he had done two weeks earlier against US Revel (treble for a 0-9 Parisian success).
After a quarter of an hour of play, it was he who opened the scoring with a good pass from Kolo Muani (0-1, 16e). Then in the second half, while the USO remained potentially threatening, it was again he who signed the break, from the penalty spot, after a clumsy hand that was severely punished in the area (0-2, 63e). To give a little more substance to this expected success of the Reds and Blues, Mbappé added two assists to his performance of the day. Two offerings for the benefit of Ramos (1-3, 73e) and the very young Mayulu, 17 years old (1-4, 88e).
Luis Enrique: “We are going in the right direction”
Resident of National – the third division of French football – Orléans thus logically bowed. But the Loirétains can boast of having scored against the leader of the French championship, exploiting the generosity of the Parisian ogre on a set piece to temporarily reduce the gap by Saint-Ruf (1-3, 86e). “ We have a very clear objective: to win all the trophies. So the Coupe de France is a goal for ussaid Luis Enrique hotly on the beIN Sports antenna. To do this, you have to have the right attitude, and tonight, we had it! We showed determination, we are moving in the right direction. No matter the competition. »
