They do not have a toxic relationship. Everything is exagerrated by the media.

If there’s one thing I’ll miss about Messi’s unfortunate time at PSG it’s his link up with Mbappe. At a well lead club these two could’ve won everything together 😩 https://t.co/d3EimD86fV pic.twitter.com/sdaO4s1ggQ

Talking about the action in Messi’s last game with PSG against Clermont Foot, he couldn’t live up to the expectations and failed to score a goal. Eventually, PSG lost the match by a margin of 2-3. It was Sergio Ramos who opened the score sheet in PSG’s favour and scored the first goal of the match only in the 16th minute. Just five minutes after the goal scored by Ramos, Kylian Mbappe brilliantly converted a penalty into the goal and helped PSG to take 2-0 in the early minutes of the game.
But something else was yet to happen in the match and Johan Gastien came up with the first goal for Clermont in the 24th minute of the match to reduce PSG’s lead to 2-1. Furthermore, Mehdi Zeffane scored the second goal for his side in the injury time of the first half to equal the scoresheet by 2-2. Both teams were on equal score till Grejohn Kyei scored a stunning field goal in the 63rd minute to take his team into a lead by 3-2.
Clermont Foot maintained this difference till the end and ended up winning the match against PSG, who are still in the first spot of the points table of Ligue 1 so far.
