Paris Saint-Germain had Kylian Mbappe to thank as his brace saw the runaway Ligue 1 leaders come from behind to win 2-1 at struggling Caen on Saturday in their final outing before their Champions League last-16, second leg against Manchester United.
“The coach said before the game that, to prepare for the big matches, we need to win the game before it,” Mbappe told Canal+. Neymar and Edinson Cavani are still sidelined, although the latter is now close to a comeback after a hip injury. United’s 3-2 comeback win over Southampton on Saturday continued their fine run under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with the first leg against PSG remaining the Norwegian’s only defeat in charge.
PSG had hit the woodwork three times in the first half in Caen, through Layvin Kurzawa, Marquinhos and Angel di Maria. However, PSG were level within three minutes when Mbappe scored from the spot after a handball by young defender Younn Zahary.
