PSG got the job done in Toulouse with an outstanding Leo Messi who assisted in the first two goals. They were scored by Neymar and Kylian Mbappe.

Galtier can breathe easily. He has a front three which is unbeatable. Messi, the oldest of the three, once again shone for PSG, this time by acting as assist maker for his strike partners.

PSG struggled to break the deadlock in Toulouse, but the first goal came not long before half-time. It was in the 39th minute when Verratti combined with Mbappe and Messi. The Argentine played a pass into space for Neymar.

The Brazilian, in the one on one situation, finished wonderfully, but the goal was disallowed on the pitch for offside. However, a VAR review confirmed that there was no offside and the goal was awarded.

Then, early in the second half, Messi reached the by-line to play a pass back to Mbappe, who finished the move with a low and powerful shot which beat Toulouse goalkeeper Dupe.

Juan Bernat then added a third in the 90th minute to complete the 0-3 victory for the Parisians.
