It took him a while, but Paris Saint-Germain left-back Nuno Mendes now has his first career assist with the team.

Over the opening half of PSG’s Coupe de France round of 32 fixture against Vannes, the Portuguese fullback was given corner kick duties by midfielder Marco Verratti. From there, he wound up assisting Presnel Kimpembe for the opening goal of the contest.
