Paris Saint-Germain secured their place in the Ligue 1 quarter-finals with a convincing 2-1 victory over Rennes on Sunday night. The match was played at Parc des Princes and saw Neymar Jr., Kylian Mbappé, and Lucas Digne all contribute to the win.
Mbappé scored twice for PSG, first from the penalty spot after being fouled by Rennes defender Yannick Bolasie, and then from close range shortly after halftime. His goal helped secure his position as the league's top scorer with 44 goals so far this season.
Neymar also made an impact with a clever chip header that put PSG in front early in the second half. However, Rennes fought back and managed to draw level through a fine effort from Romain Angoulette.
The match ended with a tense finish, but PSG held onto their advantage thanks to the performance of goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois. He made several key saves, including one crucial stop to deny Rennes' substitute Kevin Volland in the final moments of the game.
This result moves PSG up to fourth in the table, two points behind leaders Monaco. They will face either Bordeaux or Lyon in the next round of qualifying matches. Rennes, meanwhile, will have to settle for a lower seed in the knockout stages.
