Lionel Messi came as a substitute in the second half to play his first Ligue 1 match with Paris Saint-Germain, against its host, Stade Reims, on Sunday, and Kylian Mbappe scored a double to give the capital team a 2-0 victory.
The Argentine striker, who joined PSG from Barcelona for two years earlier this month, replaced Brazilian striker Neymar in the 66th minute, in his first official match since winning the Copa America in July.
