The French football season kicked off on Saturday, and Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) made a strong start to their campaign by defeating Rennes at home in round 16 of the Ligue 1 competition.

The match was played at the Parc des Princes stadium, and PSG were looking to continue their winning streak as they had won their last five matches in all competitions. The game started with both teams trying to dominate the midfield, but it wasn't until the second half that PSG really found their stride.

In the 59th minute, PSG took the lead when Kylian Mbappe scored a stunning goal from outside the box. The French forward beat two defenders before curling the ball into the bottom corner of the net. The goal gave PSG a vital lead going into halftime, and the team continued to press for more goals in the second half.

Despite some defensive mistakes, PSG held onto their lead and eventually secured a 2-0 victory over Rennes. The win was a big boost for PSG, who have been struggling recently after losing several key players during the transfer window.

Mbappe's goal was particularly important for PSG, as it helped them take control of the match early on. He has been one of the standout performers for PSG this season, and his goals have been crucial in helping them maintain their position at the top of the table.

Overall, PSG's performance against Rennes was a promising sign for the rest of the season. They will need to keep up their good form if they want to compete for the title again this year, but with Mbappe leading the way, there is plenty of hope for the future.
