Paris Saint-Germain 4-2 Nantes: Mbappe breaks record as leaders go 11 points clear
Nantes fought back from two goals down in the first half, but Danilo Pereira's header increased Paris Saint-Germain's lead at the summit.
Lionel Messi put PSG in front with his 18th goal of the season and they looked set for a comfortable evening when a Jaouen Hadjam own goal doubled their advantage only 17 minutes in.
Nantes had other ideas, Ludovic Blas giving them a lifeline by catching Gianluigi Donnarumma out at his near post and Ignatius Ganago heading them level in an action-packed first half at Parc des Princes on Saturday.
Danilo Pereira restored PSG's lead with a second-half header and Mbappe made history with his 201st goal for the club in the closing stages, surpassing Edinson Cavani's tally.
