Kylian Mbappe showed why he was voted the 7th best player in world football on Thursday, despite still being just 18, by showing remarkable pace and composure to seal victory for PSG against Lille.

The youngster already had a strong case for Man of the Match against Lille on Saturday, even before his last-minute heroics.

With time ticking away and PSG leading 2-1, the visitors sent their goalkeeper forward for a corner as many teams choose to do in those circumstances.

However, they weren't counting on an incredible turn of pace from Mbappe.

The ball was cleared and the former Monaco man was sent racing away. There didn't look to be too much danger, with no less than three defenders appearing to have the situation under control.

The France international soon turned on the afterburners though, shaking off an attempt to scythe him down and leaving alll three trailing in his wake to race clear and tap into the empty net.

Is there anything he can't do?
