Nigerian international Terem Moffi put up a five-star performance as Nice defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-2 away from home.

Nice extended their lead in the 68th minute when the Nigerian fired a low drive into the back of the net, but Mbappe scored his second goal with a sensational volley in the 87th minute.

It ended PSG 2-3 Nice.

Luis Enrique’s side would have gone top of the table with three points, but they slipped to third, leaving the manager utterly disappointed.

He said via RFI:

“Throughout the match, they were fresher than us. Obviously, a defeat hurts; we all have to improve, myself included. But I liked our state of mind.

“Of the three goals, two were deflected. Nice played great football, but I’m not worried, and I saw the fans support their team even when they were two goals down.”

Nice, backed by British billionaire Jim Ratcliffe, will hope to bounce back this term from a disappointing campaign last season when they could only finish ninth in Ligue 1.

Jude Bellingham aims dig at Mbappe

Sports Brief earlier reported that Jude Bellingham took a sly swipe at Paris Saint-Germain's Kylian Mbappe when questioned about the Frenchman's potential move to Real Madrid.

Despite being a long-standing target for the Spanish club, Mbappe's transfer to the Santiago Bernabeu Stadium remains uncertain after his sensational U-turn, which saw him extend his PSG contract.

As his current deal with the French champions approaches expiration next summer, speculation surrounding the 24-year-old's transfer to Madrid has resurfaced.
