Warren Zaire-Emery became Paris Saint-Germain's youngest-ever Ligue 1 starter when he was named in the side for their clash with Rennes on Sunday night.
The 16-year-old was selected in the starting XI alongside Lionel Messi and Neymar for the trip to Roazhon Park, with Kylian Mbappe on the bench for Christophe Galtier's side. However, Zaire-Emery was unable to help PSG extend their lead at the top of the table as Rennes ran out 1-0 winners courtesy of Hamari Traore's second-half strike.
Despite the result, it was a momentous occasion for Zaire-Emery, who was not even born when team-mate Messi made his LaLiga debut for Barcelona in October 2005. Zaire-Emery was born in Paris five months later and started playing football as a four-year old - the same year in which Messi won his third Champions League medal.
