Kylian Mbappe put the drama surrounding his future to one side by opening the scoring for PSG against Benfica, but Joao Mario's second-half penalty was enough to earn the visitors a point in Paris.

Mbappe, who reportedly wants to leave the Parc des Princes in January amid tensions with the club's hierarchy, struck first from the penalty spot five minutes before half-time after Juan Bernat was brought down inside the box.

But when Marco Verratti felled Rafa Silva in the area with 25 minutes remaining, Mario converted the equaliser to leave both sides on eight points and in touching distance of the knockout stages following Juventus' defeat against Maccabi Haifa.
