PSG hosted Nantes on Saturday, defeated the visitors 4-2, and enjoyed a historical day from Kylian Mbappe. That was the highlight of the day, of course, but there were also some rather uglier spells of play through Saturday's night game at the Parc des Princes.

Mbappe overtook Edinson Cavani in the goalscoring list of PSG after tying the mark reached by the Uruguay international (200) last weekend, but PSG made the whole affair a hard one going from a 2-0 lead to a 2-2 tie before halftime.

Christophe Galtier made the most of his available players and his shallow rotation, decided to use the three-man defense that worked wonders for him against Olympique Marseille (3-0 win at the Stade Velodrome) a week ago, and all-things-considered achieved a nice all-around victory against Nantes in a game that should have been wrapped up after the first half of play.

Here are the grades from our Parisian men after they won their third game in a row ahead of the win-or-go-home clash at Munich with a place in the Champions League last-8 up for grabs.

PSG vs Nantes - Grades: Goalkeepers

3 - Donnarumma: Awful night for Gigio. The first goal was a glaring mistake for a goalie of a team of PSG's height. Yes, it was a fluky, random, misplaced cross-turned-into-shot but that doesn't mean Donnarumma is excused from not blocking a close-post attempt like that. The second one wasn't that bad but it was still rather shameful to watch unfold because he didn't seem to have a clue about what was going on with the corner kick. Worrying form with Bayern's firepower waiting right around the corner.
