Paris Saint-Germain refocused on their last shot at silverware this season in Ligue 1 and beat Brest 2-1 with a late Kylian Mbappe goal on Saturday.Mbappe beat the offside trap to collect a through ball from Lionel Messi in the 90th minute and rounded goalkeeper Marco Bizot to slot into an empty net.

In under a week, Bayern Munich will face off with Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League.Will Kylian Mbappe be ready?Mbappe suffered a hamstring injury in Paris Saint-Germain's 3-1 win over Montpellier last week and he was subbed off after only 21 minutes, being replaced by Hugo Ekitike.For Mbappe and PSG, though they did get the result in the end, the injury rubbed salt in his own wounds after missing a penalty kick as well as the ensuing retake that had to occur due to Montpellier keeper Benjamin Lecomte coming off of his line too early.

Sergio Ramos was seen shoving a photographer after Paris Saint-Germain's 1-0 defeat in their Champions League round of 16 first leg against Bayern Munich on Tuesday.Lionel Messi and Kylian Mbappe returned to PSG's squad from injury but were unable to turn their side's poor form.Christophe Galtier's side have now lost their last three matches and the defeat to Bayern has put their Champions League campaign in jeopardy.

Update
Presnel Kimpembe has now been ruled out of the season, per Reuters.It's reported that his non-contact injury sustained in PSG's 3-0 road win at Marseille is a ruptured right Achilles - and the center-back's season is over.Oh, no.Paris Saint-Germain center-back Presnel Kimpembe was stretchered off the field ( via @iMiaSanMia) in the first half of PSG's Ligue 1 match against Olympique de Marseille today.

Bayern dominate the pitch
Bayern Munich played like the Bayern of old, so hats off to you Julian Nagelsmann.Bayern made sure the only damage Paris Saint-Germain would be able to inflict was through their speed and their counterattack.Joshua Kimmich and Leon Goretzka thoroughly - and I mean thoroughly - dominated the PSG midfield.

A small programming note.In our own Match Awards for this game we neglected to hand out the customary jersey swap for an outstanding performance on the opposing team.We meant no malice by it, but neither writer nor several editors noticed the omission for a while - it was that kind of day for Paris Saint-Germain.

Cristiano Ronaldo scored twice in his first game in Saudi Arabia and Lionel Messi was also on the scoresheet as Paris St-Germain edged a Riyadh All-Star XI 5-4 in a thrilling contest.The exhibition match in the Saudi capital saw two of the greatest players of all time sharing a pitch together for possibly the final time.
