The French champions were up by one goal on 78 minutes and saved the best for last.

Messi found Juan Bernat on his left and the full-back passed it back to the seven-time Ballon d’Or winner, who then switched it to Mbappe behind him.

The France international then registered perhaps the best assist in Ligue 1 this season as he immediately played the Barcelona legend through with an outrageous backheel.

Messi dribbled past Ajaccio goalkeeper Benjamin Leroy and sealed the win for Christophe Galtier’s side.
