Star striker Kylian Mbappe was kept quiet, and Paris Saint-Germain could not find a way to score in a 0-0 draw at struggling Clermont in the Ligue 1 on Saturday. Mbappe shook off a minor injury to his left ankle sustained in last Sunday's 4-0 home win against Marseille and started.

He received a yellow card for diving in an attempt to win a penalty in the 80th minute but could not add to his league-leading seven goals. PSG moved to second place but has won only three of its seven league games under new coach Luis Enrique, drawing three and losing one. The draw moved Clermont off the bottom and into 17th place with two points. A home win for Monaco later Saturday at home to Marseille would put it on top.


Marseille coach Gennaro Gattuso was taking charge of his first game. Goalkeeper Mory Diaw thwarted PSG with a couple of saves in the first half from right winger Ousmane Dembele. Clermont defender Cheick Konate forced a save from PSG goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma in the 53rd minute, and, a minute later, Mbappe hit the post from Dembele's cross. Diaw, who played for PSG's reserves from 2012-15, produced a fine save from substitute Goncalo Ramos in the 81st and another from midfielder Danilo in stoppage time. PSG faces a difficult-looking trip to play Newcastle United in the UEFA Champions League on Wednesday.
