Paris St Germain's Moise Kean rejoicing after scoring their second goal against Dijon at the Ligue 1 at Parc des Princes, Paris in France on Saturday — Reuters PARIS, Oct 25 (AFP): Moise Kean and Kylian Mbappe both scored twice as Paris Saint-Germain beat Dijon 4-0 on Saturday to go top of Ligue 1, while the match between Lens and Nantes was postponed after 11 members of the home squad tested positive for coronavirus.
Kean started at the Parc des Princes and scored a first-half brace, his first goals since moving to PSG on loan from Everton.
Mbappe then replaced the Italy international in the latter stages and added a late double of his own as Thomas Tuchel's team - for whom Neymar was outstanding - bounced back from their midweek Champions League loss to Manchester United and made it six consecutive Ligue 1 victories.
The result allowed PSG to go top of the table, a point clear of Lille, although the northerners can reclaim first place by beating Nice on Sunday.
The reigning champions were missing nine players due to injury or suspension, including Angel di Maria and Marco Verratti, while Mbappe was rested at kick-off ahead of a trip to Turkey to play Istanbul Basaksehir on Wednesday.
