On a night when Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo both shared a pitch together for possibly the final time, PSG beat Riyadh All-Stars 5-4 in a thrilling exhibition match.

While Lionel Messi opened the scoring for the French side, Cristiano Ronaldo netted twice, including a penalty. Even Kylian Mbappe got on the scoresheet with a spot-kick, ensuring the fans went home satisfied.

PSG won the match despite being a man down for most of the game, with Juan Bernat sent off in the 39th minute.

There was more drama when Neymar missed his penalty kick before the half-time break but the French Champions enjoyed a much better second half to take home the honours.
