PARIS (Reuters) - Paris St Germain geared up for their Champions League last-16 second leg against Barcelona with a no-nonsense 3-0 victory at Stade Brestois in the French Cup last 32 on Saturday. Mbappe put the visitors ahead on nine minutes with a fierce strike into the top corner at the end of a counter-attack. Sarabia doubled the advantage just before the interval by latching onto Julian Draxler's cross after another rapid break. Mbappe then chested the ball into the net from Marco Verratti's cross to put the result beyond doubt in the 74th minute. Elsewhere, RC Lens, who are fifth in Ligue 1, slumped to a 3-2 defeat at third division Red Star.
