New France skipper Kylian Mbappe said he would not change after being given the armband by coach Didier Deschamps for the Euro 2024 qualifiers as he promised to be "a different captain" to long-term predecessor Hugo Lloris.
The aftermath of that loss on penalties to Argentina in Qatar has been turbulent, to say the least
PSG, trailing 1-0 from the first leg in Paris, were beaten 2-0 in the return game at the Allianz Arena to drop out of the competition in the last 16 for the fifth time in seven seasons
Paris St Germain forward Kylian Mbappe may be among the most exciting footballers in the world to watch but Bayern Munich will not be spending time admiring his skills when they meet on Wednesday in the Champions League last-16 second leg.
The 24-year-old Mbappe found the back of the net two minutes into stoppage time for his 201st goal in all competitions with PSG, improving the mark he shared with Edinson Cavani
While Mbappe became PSG's joint record scorer with 200 goals -- level with Edinson Cavani -- Messi became only the second player after his long-time rival Cristiano Ronaldo to enter the 700-goal club in club career
The visitors were punished when Mbappe turned in Juan Bernat's cross to make it 3-3 before Messi's free-kick five minutes into stoppage time sealed a dramatic victory for PSG.
PSG head coach Galtier noted Neymar played in a poker tournament on Wednesday and visited a McDonald's branch with friends. It came at a point when PSG's season has reached crisis point, with three damaging defeats in succession putting Galtier under pressure.
"We have to remember the final part of the game; we're behind but we saw that we were able to cause them trouble. We need all our players to be healthy and go there to win and qualify," said Mbappe, who was back after a two-week injury layoff.

On Saturday, coach Christophe Galtier said he did not think Mbappe would play on Tuesday
