PSG midfielder ​Wijnaldum relieved after brace against RB Leipzig

Former Liverpool midfielder Gini Wijnaldum admitted he was relieved after his contribution for Paris Saint-Germain against RB Leipzig in the Champions League.

Wijnaldum joined PSG on a free transfer in the summer, but has struggled for regular game time this season.

The Dutchman netted his first two goals in a PSG shirt in a 2-2 draw, in his 16th appearance since leaving Liverpool.

"I've been waiting for this moment for so long and it was a relief to have scored goals and have been able to help the team," wrote Wijnaldum on Twitter.

"It feels good but I can't be too happy because the job isn't done.

"I'm also looking at what I can do better and there is much more that I can do better."
