He was Injured in Poland’s World Cup qualifying win over Andorra.
PSG has taken advantage of the situation and has been very prolific in front of the goal. Mbappe and Neymar are clearly becoming the world’s most threatening duo in front. Mbappe played one of the best games of his life against Barcelona in their 1st leg of the Round of 16 in the Champions League. The game ended 4-1 In Paris’s favor and Mbappe scored a hattrick in the game. Even without Neymar, Barcelona struggled to stop Mbappe and Company.
Paris no doubt did a fantastic job under Thomas Tuchel last season who helped them reach the Champions League final for the first time in their club history. But Unfortunately, they lost 1-0 to A almost perfect Bayern squad. Although Kingsley Coman scored the only goal it was Manuel Neuer who played the best game of his life. He saved everything Paris threw in his way.
But in this year’s league wheels turned and Paris defeated Bayern courtesy of Mbappe’s brace in the first away leg. The 3 away goals proved out to be crucial and Paris proceeded to the Semi-Finals of the Champions League. Mbappe and other teammates look in great form and Pochettino seems to have found the missing link. This might be the year PSG lifts the Champions League trophy and fulfill their long-awaited dream.
