Overview
- Nuno Mendes put PSG ahead with a curling 25-yard free-kick minutes after coming on, before 17-year-old Ethan Mbappé levelled late for Lille in a 1-1 draw at the Stade Pierre-Mauroy.
- Luis Enrique was without six first-team players, including Fabián Ruiz with an adductor issue plus João Neves, Marquinhos, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, Désiré Doué and Ousmane Dembélé.
- PSG leaned on multiple teenagers in the starting XI and later introduced Achraf Hakimi, Mendes and Vitinha to lift a laboured attack.
- The point sees PSG reclaim first place in Ligue 1 heading into the international break after their midweek 2-1 comeback win at Barcelona.
- Goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier started against his former club after a summer move reported at around €40 million.
