Lionel Messi scored twice as Paris St-Germain came from behind to beat RB Leipzig in the Champions League. Kylian Mbappe had previously put the French side ahead, slamming into the bottom corner on the counter-attack. However Andre Silva and Nordi Mukiele scored from Angelino crosses to put Leipzig ahead.

It was certainly a cruel way to lose any match, never mind a final. This is the place for more football news from across Europe.  Comments from around the internet On The Guardian, one fan commented on the post match story:   "Well done by France. In the en

The game is always an important date in the Ligue 1 calendar.  Strasbourg moved up to 10th place ahead of this weekend's games while Metz dropped to 19th and is one of only four teams yet to win. Many Metz fans are already concerned that their team might be in for a relegation battle this season. We believe this roughly translates as: "We don't know about you, but for us the weekend is off to a very good start!
