PARIS (AP) — French league leader Paris Saint-Germain gave away a two-goal lead then trailed by one goal with four minutes left before Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi turned things around and helped PSG to beat Lille 4-3. PSG looked set for a fourth consecutive loss in all competitions but Mbappe equalized in the 86th minute at the Parc des Princes. Messi slotted home the winner deep in added time from a free kick with a lethal left-footed shot. Neymar was forced off the field on a stretcher in the second half after twisting his right ankle. Second-place Marseille later traveled to Toulouse. PSG and Marseille will face off next week at the Stade Velodrome in the biggest match in French soccer.
