The French striker converted a penalty early on June 4 to finish the Ligue 1 campaign with 29 goals.
Achraf Hakimi broke through in the 21st minute but was brought down in the penalty area by the opposition’s defender. Right away, the referee pointed to the penalty area. Stepping up, Kylian Mbappe helped PSG double their advantage.
In order to encourage the goalkeeper, who was in a critical condition following a horseback riding accident in Spain, Mbappe held out a Sergio Rico jersey after scoring.

Fans are still not happy with Mbappe’s decision to not concede the penalty to Messi, who is playing in his final game for PSG.
One supporter remarked, “PSG against Messi until the very end.” “Messi was right to leave Paris,” the second remarked. The third fan had the same sentiment, saying: “Perhaps Mbappe would rather win the top scorer award than be appreciative to Messi.”
Messi failed to score in the final game he played for PSG. “EL Pulga” had the smallest chance in the second half but missed it.
PSG lost to Clermont 3–2 at home to end Ligue 1 2022–23. Previously, after just 21 minutes of play, the defending champion France was up 2-0.
