Kylian Mbappe scored twice as Paris Saint-Germain kicked off their Champions League campaign with a 2-1 win over Juventus at the Parc des Princes.
Once more among the favourites as they seek to finally get their hands on European football’s premier club crown, PSG were heavy favourites to see off the Italians in their opener and Christophe Gaultier’s side got off to the perfect start, with Mbappe opening the scoring after just five minutes, drilling home after exchanging passes with Neymar, whose wonderful scooped pass dissected the Juve defence.
It was the ideal response from the duo to Mbappe's revelation that the pair endure a relationship that the Frenchman declared runs hot and cold, causing widespread headlines in the past 24 hours.
