Paris Saint-Germain defeated Strasbourg in the UEFA Champions League group stage by scoring three times in their first round match on Saturday night.

The French champions took advantage of a poor start from their opponents and scored twice in the opening half-hour to take control of the game. In the second half, they continued their dominance as Mbappe scored his second goal of the night, capitalizing on a corner kick.

Mbappe's performance was instrumental in Paris' success. He scored his third goal just before halftime and added another in the 67th minute, putting PSG up 4-0. The striker's performances were particularly impressive as he was also involved in the first half's dramatic stoppage time penalty shootout against Monaco.

The victory over Strasbourg is a significant step forward for the French club, who had been struggling in recent seasons. It shows that PSG can still be competitive at this level and that they have a strong squad ready to face any challenge.

In addition to Mbappe's goals, PSG also managed to score a brace from Antoine Griezmann and Edinson Cavani in the second half. The trio combined well and gave PSG a clear lead, which allowed them to hold onto the win comfortably.

Overall, it was a crucial win for PSG as they continue to show resilience and determination in the league. They will now look to continue their strong run in Europe and potentially reach the knockout stages of the competition.
