In a match where PSG initially found themselves on the back foot, it was their star forward, Kylian Mbappe, who once again emerged as a savior. Paris Saint-Germain entered their Champions League group stage match against AC Milan on the back of a disappointing defeat to Newcastle United. PSG boss Luis Enrique had a lot to figure out, especially given his team’s recent struggles in the UEFA Champions League. However, as PSG secured a comfortable 3-0 win in the clash, Luis Enrique breathed a sigh of relief as he appreciated Mbappe for his crucial goal.

After a mini-goal drought lately, the French sensation Kylian Mbappe has found his scoring boots once again. As he netted for the second consecutive game with PSG, his performance against AC Milan earned him appraisal from his coach.

PSG boss credits Kylian Mbappe for the crucial win

In the heavyweight clash between the French giants PSG, and Italian giants AC Milan, the entire landscape of the game changed following Mbappe’s goal. The Frenchman’s goal late in the first half, initiated by Zaïre-Emery’s fine run and pass, effectively opened the account for PSG in the match. It gave a breathing space to PSG, who were being dominated in the first quarter of the match. Much like the Newcastle United game, Milan began to expose PSG’s shortcomings and caused problems for them. However, it was in this moment of vulnerability that Kylian Mbappe took charge in his own hands.

PSG boss and Spanish manager Luis Enrique could not have been more thankful for the Frenchman’s goal, as it provided much-needed breathing space for the Parisians. Enrique acknowledged that the Rossoneri had their moments, but it was Mbappe’s goal that actually gave them freedom on the pitch. In the post-match conference, Enrique stated, “I think Milan were better than us for 20-25 minutes, and we couldn’t find a response. But the first goal freed us.”
