Mbappe hat-trick lifts PSG to the top

Nov 11 (Reuters) - Kylian Mbappe grabbed a hat-trick as Paris St Germain moved top of Ligue 1 with a 3-0 victory at fourth-placed Reims on Saturday.

Champions PSG top the standings with 27 points, one ahead of Nice who played out a goalless draw at Montpellier on Friday.

Mbappe scored after three minutes, receiving a cross unmarked at the back post and calmly slotting a low volley into the bottom corner of the net.

He doubled the advantage for the visitors in the 59th minute, eluding his marker to tap in a low cross at the far post.
