Paris (AP) – The star ensemble from Paris Saint-Germain has managed a sovereign mandatory victory on the way to winning the French football championship again.
The club from the capital prevailed against relegation candidates FC Lorient 5-1 (2-0) and after the 30th matchday still has a twelve-point lead over pursuers Olympique Marseille. Eight matches are still on the program for PSG in Ligue 1 before the end of the season.
Neymar (12th/90th minute), Kylian Mbappé (28th/67th) and Lionel Messi (73rd) scored against Lorient. The team of coach Mauricio Pochettino also made amends for the bitter 0: 3 in the previous league game at AS Monaco. However, Terem Moffi (56th) managed to score the goal to make it 2-1 after a serious mistake by the PSG defence. Led by the strong Mbappé, Paris then had no more problems.
