It would have been an equaliser for the French champions, who were trailing 1-0 to the unbeaten Nice side in the 28th minute.

Dembele was played through by Kylian Mbappe and had Goncalo Ramos available, but he decided to do it alone.

The PSG hotshot unleashed a fierce shot that flew over the bar, approximately 10 metres wide, leaving fans at Parc des Princes and viewers in disbelief.

"PSG thought they did something when they replaced Leo Messi with Ousmane Dembele"

@DKostanjsak tweeted:

"Dembele is frustrating; always has been and likely always will be. He's erratic, unpredictable, often inconsistent and perplexing. That's pretty much the only constant about him. I know it's popular to hate on him... But he's still a top tier player."

PSG stunned at home by Nice

Sports Brief reported earlier that Paris Saint-Germain slipped to their first loss of the Ligue 1 season despite a Kylian Mbappe double as an impressive Nice secured a 3-2 victory at the Parc des Princes on Friday, with Terem Moffi scoring twice.

PSG fell behind less than midway through the first half as Moffi found the net following a poor mistake by Mbappe.

The France striker made amends on the half-hour mark, but Gaetan Laborde restored Nice's lead eight minutes after the break and Moffi put another past the ragged hosts.
