There were a few uncomfortable moments early on for the hosts and Brest really should’ve taken the lead in the ninth minute.

Irvin Cardona found himself through on goal but his effort was denied by a strong save by Gianluigi Donnarumma.

Kylian Mbappé made no mistake in the 32nd minute to give PSG the lead with his 11th goal of the season.

Gini Wijnaldum found the Frenchman at the edge of the box before he worked the angle to unleash a low drive into the bottom corner.

Defender Thilo Kehrer then doubled the advantage at the start of the second, taking advantage of some good work from Nuno Mendes, ghosting into the box to get on to the end of the Portuguese defender’s cross.

It’s a first league win of 2022 for Mauricio Pochettino’s side who have opened up a considerable gap on second-placed Nice while the visitors remain in 13th.
