According to Metro, the Brazilian, who will not also play active role in the reverse fixture on March 6, was excited after Presnel Kimpembe netted PSG’s opener in the 53rd minute, went wild in celebration after French World Cup star Kylian Mbappe added PSG’s second goal of the night after seven minutes.
