PSG defeated Amiens SC 4-1 on December 21, 2019, in their final Ligue 1 game before Christmas break. French winger Kylian Mbappe scored twice in the match, but it was his gesture after the match that caught the eye.
The club's foundation had invited 250 kids from a refugee camp to Parc des Princes and after the match the World Cup winner turned up dressed in Santa Claus, much to the pleasure of the kids when they found him out.
"We wanted children in difficulty to experience this unique moment. For them, it’s an unforgettable night and a very important moment for the club and its foundation.” Sabrina Delannoy, director of the PSG Foundation said of the gesture, as quoted by First Sportz.
