Paris Saint-Germain consolidated its lead in the French Football League by winning Friday at the Parc des Princes against its guest, Rennes. This victory came a few days before the Paris club host Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League final next Tuesday.

 

By scoring a goal in the third minute of stoppage time, Kylian Mbappe led his Paris Saint-Germain team to a 1-0 victory at home to Stade Rennes in the French Ligue 1 on Friday.

 

Paris Saint-Germain, which hosts Real Madrid in the first leg of the Champions League final next Tuesday, is 16 points ahead of Olympique Marseille, who is in second place, who will play at the struggling Metz on Sunday.

Rennes were just three minutes away from becoming the second team to take points from Paris Saint-Germain at Parc des Princes this season, but as they rush to attack the home side punished them with a quick counter-attack. And Lionel Messi passed to Mbappe, who fired a creeping ground shot from inside the penalty area that landed in the goal.

 

A shot from the French striker hit the post before the break, after changing its direction and hitting the net in the middle of the second half, but the referee canceled the goal for offside after referring to the video technology. Rennes remained in fifth place in the league standings.
