Paris Saint-Germain boss Thomas Tuchel has played down his confrontation with Kylian Mbappe in the club's 5-0 win over Montpellier on Saturday.

Mbappe reacted unhappily to being substituted in the 68th minute at the Parc des Princes, and the pair exchanged words as he came off the pitch.

Per AS' Andres Onrubia, Tuchel said in a press conference on Monday:

"There is nothing personal between Mbappe and I. I know he doesn't want to be subbed off. It's normal, but I also want to give minutes to those on the bench.
