IMAGO/PanoramiC/Thierry Breton

Kylian Mbappe scored a hat-trick for Paris Saint-Germain inside the first 48 minutes of Sunday's clash with sixth-tier US Revel in the Coupe de France.

Mbappe opened the scoring on Sunday in the 16th minute with a low left-footed finish from 16 yards.

A Maxence N'Guessan own goal doubled PSG's lead before Marco Asensio made it 3-0.

Mbappe then struck again to put PSG 4-0 up on the stroke of half-time.

His second goal came from a headed finish but it was all about the build-up.

Carlos Soler scooped a pass over multiple defenders to Asensio, who back-heeled a volley over his head into the path of Mbappe and the France captain stooped to head home from 10 yards.

Asensio also provided the assist for Mbappe's hat-trick goal, which was a tap-in that arrived 148 seconds after half-time.

PSG's sixth goal of the night came from a 71st-minute penalty kick converted by Goncalo Ramos.

Substitute Randal Kolo Muani made it 7-0 five minutes later with a simple finish from close range after being set-up by a clever dummy from Mbappe.

Goal no.8 was scored by 19-year-old Cher Ndour.

How Many Hat-Tricks Has Kylian Mbappe Scored In His Career?

Sunday's hat-trick was the 17th of Mbappe's senior career.

Thirteen of those hat-tricks have been recorded while Mbappe was playing for PSG.

Only once has Mbappe scored a hat-trick and not ended the game on the winning side. That famously occurred in the 2022 FIFA World Cup final when Argentina beat France in a penalty shootout following an epic 3-3 draw after extra time.
