Messi, Neymar, Mbappe Fail To Sparkle As PSG Lose 2-0 To Rennes

Published

Paris Saint-Germain’s winning start to the Ligue 1 campaign came to an end with a shock 2-0 loss to Rennes on Sunday.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side had won eight out of eight in the league prior to their trip to Roazhon Park and were 15 without defeat in the competition since early April.

But PSG were made to pay for poor misses from Neymar and Kylian Mbappe as Gaetan Laborde and Flavien Tait struck for Rennes either side of half-time. 

Mbappe had a goal chalked off for offside and Lionel Messi went close from a free-kick, having earlier struck the crossbar from one, but PSG could not find a response in a rare setback for Pochettino.

Travel problems forced PSG’s players to make their way to Rennes via road late on Saturday and that appeared to show as they made a sluggish start to the contest.
