  • Paris Saint-Germain came from behind on two occasions to beat Troyes in a 4-3 thriller on Saturday
  • All three of PSG's fearsome attack were on the scoresheet to inspire the Parisians to a hard-fought win
  • However, what is making the rounds on the internet was an incident between Kylian Mbappe and Neymar

Kylian Mbappe denied Neymar an assist during Paris Saint-Germain's seven-goal thriller against Troyes on Saturday evening.

Both Mbappe and Neymar, as well as Lionel Messi, were on the scoresheet as PSG fought back to seal a 4-3 victory, tightening their grip at the summit of the French league table.

PSG had to dig deep, twice coming from behind to see off a spirited Troyes at Parc des Princes, but what appears to be making the rounds after the game was an incident between Mbappe and Neymar.

In their most recent outing, the pair linked up yet again. However, their connection could not yield the final desired result against Troyes.

In one of their link-ups, Neymar went on a breathtaking run, ghosting past the Troyes defence with his sublime dribbling skill before setting up Mbappe in a 1-v-1 situation with the goalkeeper.

Unfortunately, the mazy run by Neymar did not end in a goal as Mbappe's effort was parried by Gauthier Gallon in goal for Troyes.

PSG continue their unbeaten run

Lionel Messi starred with a goal and an assist as all of Paris Saint-Germain's front three scored in a 4-3 victory over Troyes on Saturday, which restored their five-point advantage at the top of Ligue 1.

The league leaders responded to second-placed Lens' win over Toulouse on Friday by twice coming from behind, to see off a spirited Troyes at Le Parc des Princes.

The attacking trio of Messi, Neymar and Kylian Mbappe have scored 43 goals between them already this season.

Messi provides stunning assist

Earlier, Sports Brief reported that Lionel Messi produced yet another showstopping performance for Paris Saint-Germain as the French champions fought back to seal a 4-3 win against Troyes.

The 35-year-old playmaker was at his devastating best as he scored and provided an assist to help Les Parisiens claw back to seal the victory and keep their unbeaten streak intact.

Messi has been simply unstoppable this term, producing superlative performances in the shirt of PSG week in and week out.
