Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured their fourth straight victory in Ligue 1 with a commanding 3-0 win over Ajaccio on Sunday afternoon at the Parc des Princes.
The match was all about the brilliance of Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi, as the two star players combined to create the majority of PSG's chances and goals.
Mbappe opened the scoring early in the second half, firing home from close range after receiving a pass from Messi. The Argentine then set up Neymar for a stunning strike that put PSG ahead 2-0 just before halftime.
The game turned into a one-sided affair in the second half, with PSG dominating possession and creating more clear-cut opportunities than they had in the first half. They were eventually rewarded with a third goal through a penalty awarded for handball by Ajaccio goalkeeper David Nohel.
The result means PSG remain top of the table with 45 points from 26 games, three clear of Paris FC and four clear of second-placed Monaco. It also marks another milestone for Mbappe, who has now scored 78 goals in all competitions this season.
In other news, the French Football Federation (FFF) have announced that they will be investigating claims made by former Marseille player Jean-Louis Leca that he was sexually assaulted by a teammate during training sessions. The FFF has launched an investigation into the allegations, which have been made public by Leca's lawyer, and have stated that any evidence or witnesses should come forward.
The incident has caused widespread outrage and has led to calls for tougher action against sexual assault in football, with many suggesting that the sport needs to do more to address the issue. However, there is still much work to be done in terms of improving the culture within football, and it remains to be seen whether the FFF's investigation will lead to any concrete changes.
