Paris Saint-Germain predictably saw off sixth-tier Pays de Cassel 7-0 to advance to the last 16 of the French Cup, with Kylian Mbappe scoring five.
2022/2023 Coupe de France
0-7
PSG manager Christophe Galtier put out a near full-strength line-up against their lowly opponents, starting both Neymar and Mbappe.
And after some early passages of promise from Pays de Cassel, the Parisians began to dominate.
Mbappe opened the scoring after 30 minutes, seeing a shot from close range deflected past a wrong-footed keeper. Neymar doubled PSG's advantage two minutes later, evading two sprawling defenders before finishing.
Pays de Cassel's resistance steadily faded from there. Mbappe completed his hat-trick before half-time and added a fourth shortly after the break. PSG would add two more, perhaps being a bit too merciless against a side full of amateur footballers.
