Late Mbappe goal sends Lille top of Ligue 1

Lille moved to the top of the Ligue 1 table on goal difference after a 2-0 win over Troyes. The team took the lead through Tiago Santos in the first half.

Ethan Mbappe, the younger brother of Kylian Mbappe, scored a late goal to seal the victory in stoppage time. He had been sent off in a midweek Champions League match against Real Betis for elbowing an opponent.

Lille have taken 10 points from a possible 12 under new coach Davide Ancelotti. According to New Straits Times, Paris Saint-Germain are seeking their first win of the league season as they head to unbeaten Brest later on Sunday.
