Paris Saint-Germain managed to show hope for the future in their first game after Lionel Messi’s departure as Kylian Mbappe guided the visitors to a 3-1 victory against now-relegated Troyes. The victory was not without protest from the visiting PSG supporters, who displayed a number of placards in the away end to express their displeasure with the club administration.

Messi has been suspended by the club, while Neymar is sidelined, so Mbappe, who was formerly teamed up up front with fellow superstars Messi and Neymar, is now on his own. Mbappe, who was in charge of everything during the game, scored the game’s opening goal early on, a fluky start for PSG amid a ferocious offensive effort.
Despite the fact that both goals were unintentionally scored, PSG deservedly won since they outclassed Troyes’ defenders for the entirety of the game, allowing the visitors to hardly touch the ball, especially in the second half. Goalkeeper Gauthier Gallon of Troyes performed brilliantly and was unfortunate to let both goals, but the visitors’ overwhelming possession domination proved too much to handle.
Just before the hour mark, Vitinha’s second goal sealed the victory, moving PSG one step closer to winning the Ligue 1 championship despite their inconsistent season by their own standards. After Xavier Chavalerin scored a headed goal in the 83rd minute, Troyes appeared to have a chance to make a comeback, but Fabian Ruiz’s reaction three minutes later put those hopes to rest.
With the loss, Troyes’ relegation to Ligue 2 was all but guaranteed. The number of clubs in the French premier division will decrease from 20 to 18 for the upcoming season, meaning four teams will be relegated and just two will be promoted. Due to the increased drop zone, you are now 12 points away from safety.
