PSG ride on Mbappe magic to retain French Cup

Kylian Mbappe set up the first goal and grabbed one of his own as Paris St Germain retained the French Cup with a 2-0 victory over Monaco in Wednesday's final at the Stade de France.

PSG have a domestic double in their sights after they won the French Cup as goals from Mauro Icardi and Mbappe won a largely uninspiring final for PSG who now go into the weekend's final round of Ligue 1 fixtures with a record-equalling 10th league title still a possibility.

PSG retained their title and extended to 14 their record number of wins in the cup. Monaco had won five previous times but last in 1991. They were last in the final in 2010 when PSG also beat them.

"When you play for PSG, one of the biggest clubs in the world, the biggest club in the country, every title counts to go down in history. We want to be part of this story, it's a great step today," said Mbappe, who was delighted at the prospect of teaming up with Karim Benzema in the French side.
