Mbappe's Goal Drought Continues After Missing Open Net Chance for PSG vs Rennes

• Kylian Mbappe spurned a golden opportunity to score against Rennes
• Paris Saint-Germain managed to secure a 3-1 win despite his howler
• Mbappe has drawn blank in his last four games for the Ligue 1 giants

Kylian Mbappe squandered a golden opportunity as his scoring 'dry spell' persisted in the Ligue 1 match against Stade Rennes.

Coming off a lacklustre display against Newcastle United in the UEFA Champions League last Wednesday, the French star sought to regain his form at Roazhon Park.

Despite mustering three shots on target, Mbappe was wasteful. He ultimately couldn't find the back of the net while his Expected Goals (xG) was 1.40, as reported by Sofascore.

In an unusual display, the 24-year-old French forward squandered a chance by firing it wide despite having a wide-open net waiting to embrace the ball.

The 2018 World Cup winner effortlessly glided past his opponent and expertly evaded the goalkeeper but regrettably faltered when it mattered most, missing a golden opportunity.

Nevertheless, his embarrassment was alleviated by his teammates, as Vitinha, Achraf Hakimi, and Randal Kolo Muani all found the back of the net, assisting PSG in getting back to their winning form with a 3-1 victory on the road, CBS Sports reports.

Mbappe urged to leave PSG

Meanwhile, following PSG's humiliating loss to Newcastle United, Mbappe was advised to move on from the French club, Sports Brief reported.

The superstar forward's inability to register a single shot on target during the UCL tie emphasised his lacklustre performance during the game.

Some fans are suggesting that Mbappe should now reconsider renewing his contract with PSG, which is set to expire at the close of next summer.

Meanwhile, Hakimi and Mbappe showed their admiration for John Cena by performing his 'You Can't See Me' taunt, as Sports Brief also reported.

The Frenchman and Moroccan were in the company of their teammates at a Professional Fighters League event in Paris when Cena's music hit.

Hakimi executed the iconic taunt, followed by Mbappe mimicking Cena's hand gesture of waving it in front of his face, just like the WWE legend.
