Kylian Mbappe was on target as Paris Saint-Germain moved 14 points clear at the Ligue 1 summit with a 2-0 win over Nantes.

PSG’s talisman, who is set to leave the club at the end of the season, climbed off the bench to seal the points from the penalty spot after Lucas Hernandez’s deflected strike broke the deadlock.

Luis Enrique’s side dominated proceedings at Stade de la Beaujoire, but it was not until the hour mark that they breached their stubborn opponents, who saw Nicolas Pallois' first-half volley ruled out for offside.

Although, it came with a huge slice of good fortune as Hernandez’s fierce 20-yard strike took a huge deflection off Moussa Sissoko before nestling in Remy Descamps’ bottom-left corner.

The visitors wrapped up the points 12 minutes from time when Mbappe, who was fouled by Douglas in the box, picked himself up to confidently sweep past Descamps from 12 yards out.

However, the Nantes defender does brilliantly to stop him in his tracks with a well-timed sliding challenge.

The result will be more than enough to extend their lead at the Ligue 1 summit to 14 points.

A brief scuffle breaks out between Kadewere and Hernandez after they tussled for the ball.

However, the referee is quickly on the scene to restore calm.
