Paris Saint-Germain and Saint-Etienne players came to blows in ugly scenes during their Coupe de France trophy final after Loic Perrin’s horror challenge on Kylian Mbappe.
A mass brawl between both sets of players broke out shortly after the half-hour mark after Perrin saw red for hacking down Mbappe, leaving the French World Cup winner in a heap on the floor and screaming in agony.
Saint-Etienne skipper Perrin was initially only shown a yellow card for the foul on Mbappe, but players were quick to take matters into their own hands. Saint-Etienne striker Romain Hamouma was booked for his involvement in the brawl, as were PSG duo Mitchel Bakker and Leandro Paredes while Marco Verrati was carded from the bench for dissent after protesting to the referee.
The victory sees Thomas Tuchel’s side pick up their third trophy of the season after winning the French Super Cup and being crowned Ligue 1 champions.
