PSG vs Rennes: Catch the live score and updates from the Ligue 1 match at the Parc des Princes in Paris.

A sloppy error in a pass in the backline goes straight to the Rennes forward. PSG is able to get enough bodies back to halt the counter attack. Doue crosses the ball from the left. A one-two in the midfield goes wrong but the ball still lands at the Argentine’s feet off a deflection. He is first to it and fires the ball into the net but the assistant raises his flag for offside. PSG wins the ball back. Mandanda dives to his right to make the stop. The ball is headed into the roof of the net if not for the keeper’s save. But the Portugal international is body-tackled and Rennes wins the ball. Rennes has to thank its keeper for the level scoreline. The packs a punch into the right-footed shot and beats Donnarumma! Rennes has snatched the lead.

Third-placed Marseille could reduce PSG’s lead to seven points if they beat Stade Reims later on Sunday. Once again, their attacking plans were limited to finding Kylian Mbappe, while the defence was not up to the task in the absence of the injured Presnel Kimpembe and Marquinhos. At the Parc des Princes, Mbappe had two attempts brilliantly denied by Steve Mandanda – a fine chip by the France forward in the 26th minute and a powerful shot from inside the area five minutes from the break.

Montpellier had a chance to take the lead in the 13th minute but Stephy Mavididi hit the post. Monaco was then in control against a poor Ajaccio side that was punished by Diatta on the counter and remained in the relegation zone. Reims pushed hard for an equalizer in the second half and Marseille goalkeeper Pau Lopez made several decisive saves to keep his team ahead. Chasing a European spot, Rennes moved up to fifth place in the standings. Mandanda stopped Mbappe's chipped effort in the 26th minute. Kalimuendo was under contract with PSG until 2024 but spent the last two seasons on loan at Lens.

Lionel Messi at PSG - 'It's a failure, that simple': Expert analysis of ... (Eurosport.com)

PSG's season encountered more misery with a 2-0 home defeat to Rennes in Ligue 1, a match in which Lionel Messi was booed by his own fans.

Galtier was a big hope at the beginning of the season because of his tactics (3-4-3), the behaviour of his players on the pitch and his communication. “But the owners love selling shirts and having Kim Kardashian at PSG. The Champions League exit to Bayern was naturally seen as a huge blow, but perhaps also a wake-up call for the owners, who won’t want to pass up this opportunity to make PSG a true superpower in the game. They wanted to sell Neymar but nobody wants him and he wants to stay. After a good start to the season, PSG believes they can win the Champions League, but they get knocked out... They can't sell Mbappe because he is the project. The most likely option is this one: Galtier is fired, a new coach comes in. The Brazilian is 'lucky' to be out for the rest of the season as he has been seen as being way more problematic than Messi for years now.” It’s not just Messi who is in the spotlight. “It's a failure, that simple,” Morin says, assessing Messi’s time in the capital. Which says a lot, also, about the internal functioning at PSG.” He's seen as the symbol of PSG's strategy that hasn’t worked for years but still continues: more stars, less team spirit.

The premature elimination from the Champions League has brought PSG’s season to an end. Messi, on the other hand, has been singled out in France, and has yet to sign a contract extension at the club. In the Bayern match in Paris, Galtier blamed the performance on Mbappé not being at 100 percent for the tie. The new signings have not been up to scratch and Neymar, to the surprise of the dressing room, argued angrily with Campos for several minutes. In addition to the anger of the ultras, who whistled the players, there was also an argument between Neymar and Luis Campos in the dressing room. PSG suffered yet another defeat on Sunday, their seventh of the season, and their first at home in Ligue 1 for two years.

In reality, there will be a negotiation between the two clubs at the end of the season because there is no buy option clause in the loan deal and Lukaku will have to return to London in June.

The Champions League and domestic competitions may be in full swing, but the summer transfer market is already starting to heat up.

They are in such a financial mess that they are already struggling to register their current players. It has been a dire season for him in club football with PSG already out of the French Cup and the Champions League. The reunion would be magical, a genuine emotional moment but chances of it happening are slim. The Blaugrana will be unable to sign players until they raise at least £178m just to comply with the La Liga’s financial rules. More often than not, it was like trying to fit a square peg in a round hole. ‘You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain’.

Lionel Messi, PSG and what we're hearing about his future (The Athletic)

The World Cup winner is out of contract in the summer and there has still been no confirmation of where he will play next season.

As things stand, those close to Messi are planning personal and commercial matters with a view to staying in the city after this summer. A return to Argentina, and his first club in Newell’s Old Boys, of Rosario, also seems more distant than ever after a shooting outside a supermarket earlier this month in the Argentine city. There is a sense Messi is looking for the best financial option, even though sources close to him have stressed the importance of a sporting project — that he joined the club to win the Champions League, an ambition deemed possible initially by linking up with Mbappe and Neymar. It is thought Messi wants to be a part of a project that can remain competitive at the highest level. Today, there is a feeling within Messi’s camp that they do not know what the PSG project will look like, which is why they have yet to commit. But there are also doubts about the strength of Messi’s hand at this stage. Mbappe is thought to be a priority, a point disputed by those close to Messi’s camp. It showed screen grabs of three stories that had circulated around Messi — one suggesting Paris Saint-Germain would not “give in” to all of Messi’s requests to stay at the club, another saying Messi had requested €600million (£524m, $643m) to go to Saudi Arabian club Al Hilal and another claiming Messi had left a training session early because he was unimpressed by a session set up by But there has been a drift in opinion since the Champions League exit at the hands of Bayern, with internal soul searching leaving no stone unturned. But there is also a view that allowing him to leave would open up some wiggle room in their financial fair play (FFP) calculations. PSG sporting advisor Luis Campos was present but a lack of detail about what next year’s squad would look like did not go down well with the Messi camp. Messi, 35, appears to be caught in the middle.

In the past few seasons, Rennes have proved to be somewhat of a Kryptonite for Les Parisiens. Not just that, Achraf Hakimi, Carlos Soler, Sergio Ramos, Marquinhos and Nordi Mukiele missed the training ahead of the game. They have won three games each, with one game ending in a stalemate.
