PSG are SLAMMED by L'Equipe after they needed a contentious late penalty to draw with Newcastle as Kylian Mbappe is top rated with just 6 out of 10... and Nick Pope is described as 'the big man of the evening'

Paris Saint-Germain's players have been savaged by L'Equipe after they required a last-gasp penalty to draw with Newcastle United in the Champions League.

The French newspaper's ratings can be on the harsh side but the PSG team averaged just 4.5 out of 10, with Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele the highest scorers with 6.

Mbappe converted a hugely contentious penalty in the 98th-minute after Newcastle defender Tino Livramento was adjudged by VAR to have handled the ball when blocking a cross.

Alexander Isak had earlier given Newcastle the lead and they mounted a terrific rearguard action to keep the Parisians at bay.
