KYLIAN MBAPPE has been slammed for taking advantage of a mistake from Lorient goalkeeper Yvon Mvogo.
The French superstar netted a controversial equaliser for PSG against Lorient in the 29th minute of the Ligue 1 fixture.
Mvogo believed that a free kick had been given to his side after Mbappe tangled with a defender.
He nonchalantly walked with the ball in his hands next to Mbappe and then dropped it to the ground to get the game going.
However, the game had not been stopped by the referee and the PSG forward was the first to clock the error and ran to the ball and knocked it into the empty goal.
Mbappe as a result was slammed for his poor sportsmanship by fans on social media.

A fourth said: “If PSG had any class, they’d give a goal back to Lorient.”
