Mbappe nets brace as PSG thrash Dijon to put pressure on Lille.

Staff Reporter.

Paris St-Germain Kylian Mbappe bagged a double as they hammered bottom side Dijon 4-0 away to cut Lille’s Ligue 1 lead to one point on Saturday.

Moise Kean, on loan from Everton, slotted in an early opener for Mauricio Pochettino’s side.

Mbappe then scored a penalty and curled home a fine second, his 113th goal for the club.

PSG were without the injured Neymar, Angel Di Maria, Marco Verrati and Leandro Paredes but Dijon were never a match for the French champions in a one-sided encounter.

Dijon have 15 points and trail second-bottom Lorient by eight points.

Danilo headed in a late fourth from Julian Draxler’s corner but PSG remain one point below Lille, who face Strasbourg in a game in hand on Sunday.
