Mauro Icardi really is the epitome of a penalty box striker, as he was in the starting XI for one reason for PSG against Saint-Etienne - to finish chances.

This is highlighted by his remarkable passing stats, as he only attempted six balls to team-mates during his entire time on the pitch!

No, he was the finisher, not the provider, and bagged a hat-trick as PSG demolished Saint-Etienne 6-1.

The first goal saw him dart in behind the opposition defence before lashing a finish into the left corner, adding just enough height on the strike to evade the lunging goalkeeper.

His next two goals were a pair of finishes from close range, as he benefited from the unselfish play of Kylian Mbappe, who twice squared passes inside for him.
