Meanwhile, in the match at the same time, Newcastle unexpectedly lost at home to Dortmund. Currently, both Newcastle and Dortmund have 4 points and share the next two positions. AC Milan ranked bottom of the table with only 2 points.
Going into this match, PSG put great pressure on AC Milan’s goal. The Milan team could only stand for 32 minutes before the home team’s repeated attacks at Parc des Princes.
The difference maker for PSG is none other than Mbappe. After receiving a pass from Warren Zaire-Emery, Mbappe calmly eliminated the AC Milan player, before coolly scoring into the near corner, opening the score.

This goal helped PSG’s morale rise higher and higher. They still created great pressure on AC Milan’s goal. In the 53rd minute, Muani helped the Parisian team take a 2-0 lead after a close-range cushion.
AC Milan has almost no chance to resist in this match. They did not create many good opportunities. Even in the 89th minute, the Rossoneri conceded a third goal. Korean star Lee Kang In scored decisively with his left foot, leaving goalkeeper Mike Maignan helpless as he watched the ball fly into the net.
The match ended with a score of 3-0 in favor of PSG. Group F deserves to be the group of death as the teams do not differ too much in level and have a fairly narrow score gap.
