Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) beat Strasbourg at home in a nail-biting 3-0 victory on Saturday night. Young French striker Kylian McBarbie scored twice and contributed an assist to become the first player in Europe's top five leagues since 1965 to score 172 goals before the age of 25.
Just 10 minutes into the match, PSG was awarded a penalty kick, which McBarbee coolly slotted into the net. A cross from the right side of the pitch helped his teammate Carruthers-Souna to score the second goal, making the score 2-0. In the second half of the match, Carruthers-Souna's precise pass found Fabian Penner, who completed his hat-trick against Strasbourg with ease.
This season, McBarbie has scored eight goals in Ligue 1 to lead the scorers' table. He is also the first player in Europe's top five leagues in the last 58 years to score 172 goals before the age of 25 since Tottenham Hotspur's legendary striker Greaves in 1965, a feat that cannot be matched by even the two kings of soccer history, Lionel Messi and Crow.
