Fans are divided on whether the 25-year-old intended to score or not, but his first goal of the two has drawn the most attention online.

A pass was blasted into the six-yard box from the left wing as Mbappe was scurrying into the penalty area.

The cunning attacker appeared to pitch his heel at the ball out of instinct and managed to catch it flawlessly.

PSG took a 2-0 lead after the ball slipped past Lorient goalkeeper Yvon Mvogo after bouncing off his trailing foot.

When watching the slow motion recordings again, several fans on social media believe that Mbappe did not plan to score, despite the fact that the goal appeared to be a moment of perfect genius at first glance.

“Definitely a mistake,” one person wrote.

One person said, “Not in a million years did he mean that!” in response.

Others were certain that Mbappe’s goal was deliberate and evidence of why he is regarded as one of the world’s top players.

“Excellent Mbappe back-heel goal!” one person wrote. He executes a nice pass to the wings to start the move, and then he shows off his GOAT-level anticipation, mobility, and finishing.”

With 43 goals in all competitions this season, the former Monaco player has clearly got a flair for the goal.

And in the process, he is guiding PSG to the league title; as of right now, the Parisians are 11 points ahead of Mbappe’s previous squad, Monaco, in second place.
