France

Paris Saint-Germain was moments away from dropping a Champions League match in Group C, with Lorenzo Insigne and Dries Mertens putting Napoli in front with about 13 minutes to play. Then Ángel Di María saved the French club with an absolute golazo in the 93rd minute.

PSG had already lost to Liverpool in Group C play and another loss would have put the Parisians on the brink of elimination. Neymar and Kylian Mbappé couldn’t get anything to go in, with PSG’s lone score in the opening 90 minutes coming off an unfortunate own goal. 

Despite only being appointed manager of AS Monaco on Saturday, Thierry Henry has had to approach his first head coaching job like one of his trademark goals from the left wing: with remarkable speed. The traditional Ligue 1 power sits in 18th place after nine matches, and Saturday’s trip to Strasbourg represents a massive opportunity to begin the climb out of the relegation places.

Kylian Mbappé is really fast. Like, super fast.

For much of the France vs. Germany UEFA Nations League match on Tuesday, he was Les Bleus’ only offensive threat with his blinding speed. Then Antoine Griezmann showed up in the second half to propel France to a 2-1 win over Germany, putting the 2014 World Cup champions on the brink of being relegated.
