Kylian Mbappe struck twice and created two goals for Neymar and another for Lionel Messi as Paris Saint-Germain thrashed Lorient 5-1 at home on Sunday to edge closer to the Ligue 1 title. 


After three defeats in four games before the international break and a traumatic Champions League exit, PSG began the end-of-season run-in with a crushing win at the Parc des Princes. They lead Marseille by 12 points and need just 13 more from their final eight games to be assured of a record-equalling 10th French title. “We’ve got to keep winning and show that we want to get this 10th title,” Neymar told Prime Video.


“Losing is very difficult, that’s what happened in Madrid. We have to keep moving forward. It really hurt us to lose [in Europe], we wanted to go all the way in the competition.”
