Mbappe reaches milestone to lead PSG to the top with Lyon win

Kylian Mbappe became the youngest player to score 100 goals in Ligue 1 when his double powered Paris St Germain to a 4-2 win at Olympique Lyonnais and to the top of the standings on Sunday.

The 22-year-old France striker netted either side of the interval with Angel Di Maria and Danilo Pereira also getting on the scoreboard to put PSG on 63 points from 30 games.The French champions, who welcomed back Neymar after a six-week injury layoff, are ahead of Lille on goal difference after the northerners slumped to a 2-1 home defeat against Nimes earlier on Sunday.

Mbappe put the visitors in front when he fired home from an angle after Marco Verratti's fierce strike had been parried into his path by keeper Anthony Lopes. With 84 league goals for PSG and 16 for Monaco, Mbappe is the youngest player to reach the 100-goal milestone in the French top division after Herve Revelli, with St Etienne, in 1969."It's an important milestone in my career but I'm still very young and I can improve."Slimani reduced the arrears with an 18-metre shot before Mbappe asked to be substituted.
