Ligue 1: PSG beat Montpellier 4-0 HIGHLIGHTS
That front three quickly had Montpellier on the back foot, with just six minutes played when Mbappe’s square pass was dummied by Di Maria for Messi to aim a left-footed finish into the bottom-right corner.
Dimitry Bertaud had saved well from Messi moments before that goal and soon would again from Mbappe, but he was helpless in the face of an onslaught.

Mbappe hit the post from a Messi pass before the half-time whistle, which scarcely disrupted PSG’s rhythm.
A rare loose Mbappe touch only invited a clumsy challenge from Arnaud Souquet, allowing the forward to coolly convert from the penalty spot.

What’s next?
PSG’s run of three draws is over, and they’re now unbeaten in their last eight. They’ll be rounding off their season at home against Metz before they lift the trophy next week. Montpellier’s winless run continues, and Dall-Oglio will be hoping they can finish their season with a win against Angers.
