On the other hand, Ajaccio has slipped to 18th position after the loss in this match. Mbappe scored two goals in the match, taking his league tally to 26 and two goals ahead of Lens striker Alexandre Lacazette. Messi was suspended by PSG for traveling to Saudi Arabia without the club’s permission, which forced him to miss the last match.
