Kylian Mbappe's strike propelled Paris St Germain into the French Cup final with a comfortable 1-0 win over Stade Rennais on Wednesday, taking them one step closer to a 15th trophy. Mbappe opened the scoring five minutes before halftime with his eighth goal of the tournament at the Parc des Princes after latching on to Fabian Ruiz's through ball.

Rennes were desperate for an equaliser in the second half to force a penalty shootout but Martin Terrer's effort was the best they could muster, while goalkeeper Steve Mandanda denied PSG a further advantage. Luis Enrique's team will face Olympique Lyonnais in the final on May 25 after they beat 3-0 Valenciennes FC on Tuesday.
