Football News: On Sunday, days after their European collapse, Kylian Mbappe and Neymar scored as Paris Saint-Germain beat Ligue 1 strugglers Bordeaux 3-0 in front of their home crowd, who booed their stars, including Lionel Messi. The club’s stars Messi and Neymar were jeered in a sombre environment in the French capital four days after their Champions League defeat, with Mbappe the only player spared. Messi, a seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, was booed as he’d never been booed before in his career, even during Argentina’s rare difficult times, by his own fans, who whistled at every touch of the ball.
The Parisians have a 15-point advantage over second-placed Nice and are on track to equal Saint-record Etienne’s of ten French crowns, but their home fans’ frustrations have reached a breaking point.
They have yet to forgive Messi, their prized summer acquisition, for sinking the rest of the ship against Real Madrid on Wednesday.
Mbappe scored two goals in less than 30 minutes in Madrid to put PSG two up. The French club then crumbled once more, conceding three goals in 17 minutes.
Only Mbappe escaped the fury of the fans, who chanted his name after every play and cheered him on as he scored the game’s first goal after just 24 minutes.
For the rest of the season, Mauricio Pochettino’s side has only one goal: to win Ligue 1.
Mbappe answered on the pitch by scoring the game’s first goal, converting a Georginio Wijnaldum cross in a play that also included Messi for the World Cup winner’s 15th goal of the season in Ligue 1.
After an hour, Leandro Paredes scored his first goal of the season, shooting the ball into the top of the net.
Bordeaux has already lost seven of their ten away games this season, and they are currently in last place in the table.
