Paris Saint-Germain recorded two worse games in the French league. Christophe Galtier’s team lost 1-0 at Stade Rennais and drew 1-1 at Stade Reims, bringing Olympique de Marseille and RC Lens close by three and five points respectively. PSG had a chance to extend their advantage over their rivals against Montpellier on matchday 21 of Ligue 1.

Bad luck for Kylian Mbappe. Two missed penalties and an injury. And Bayern Munich on the horizon

Paris Saint-Germain quickly, in the eighth minute, got a penalty kick, which was approached by Kylian Mbappe. The PSG star hit the left side of the rivals’ goal, but his intentions were perfectly sensed by Benjamin Lecomte, who parried the ball to the side. However, the penalty kick was retaken because the Montpellier players ran into the penalty area too early, which was picked up by the VAR system. The French shot again.

This time Mbappe changed direction on the penalty kick, but Benjamin Lecomte parried the ball to the post and then the French striker missed a rebound from very close range. “Unbelievable. What happened here” – said Eleven Sports commentators. To make matters worse, Mbappe left the pitch injured in the 20th minute and was replaced by Hugo Ekitike. In addition, Paris Saint-Germain several minutes later, in the same way, lost Sergio Ramos.

Kylian Mbappe’s injury could be a big problem for Paris Saint-Germain, who will play the first leg of the Champions League round of 16 against Bayern Munich on February 14. They are currently tied goalless with Montpellier and Leo Messi’s 35th-minute goal was disallowed by VAR for offside.
