Mbappe scores late penalty to secure PSG 2-1 win over Strasbourg

Paris St Germain captain Marquinhos scored twice during the game against Racing Strasbourg before a last-gasp Kylian Mbappe goal gave that the Ligue 1 leaders a 2-1 victory on Wednesday despite the fact their squad was reduced down to 10 in the middle of the second period after Neymar was exiled.

Marquinhos scored his first goal by breaking away from his marker and then volleying into the cross of Neymar after 14 minutes. The Brazilian player, however, blocked Adrien Thomasson's shot to his net during the 51st second minute to keep the score level.

Neymar was given his marching orders in the 62nd second minute at Parc des Princes after picking two bookings within two minutes. The first one for a foul, the second one for diving just a minute after.

A week after Mbappe's dreams of becoming a twice-crowned World Cup winner were dashed following the 2018's champions France were defeated to Argentina at the Qatar final Mbappe, 24, was again on target as the Frenchman converted a penalty after six minutes of stoppage-time after being caught within the box.

PSG lead the league by scoring 44 points. They are eight more than that of RC Lens, who have an advantage in the game. However, they have one more game left to play. Strasbourg is 19th,report by joker online casino malaysia.
