Istanbul Basaksehir 0-2 Paris St-Germain: Moise Kean scores double

Everton forward Moise Kean scored twice as Paris St-Germain recovered from losing Neymar to injury to beat Istanbul Basaksehir in the Champions League.

Neymar had gone off midway through the first half after appearing to pull a muscle.

Kean then got his second with a fine finish on the turn inside the box.

The result was a little harsh on the hard-working hosts, who had the better chances before Kean first struck.

Shortly before PSG’s goal, Edin Visca had forced a good save out of goalkeeper Keylor Navas after capitalising on a defensive error.

Navas made another good save to prevent the hosts from equalising, batting away Deniz Turuc’s stinging half-volley on the run.

Prior to scoring, PSG’s best chance had been a Kylian Mbappe effort, which he lashed wide from a promising position.

But Kean took centre stage in the second half as he took his tally to four goals in four games since joining PSG from Everton on 4 October.

The win was PSG’s first in this year’s Champions League after they lost their Group H opener to Manchester United last week.
