PSG cruised to a 4-0 win over Marseille in Le Classique, although the hosts are now sweating on Kylian Mbappe’s fitness after the French star was withdrawn through injury.
Luis Enrique’s side made the dream start by taking the lead after just eight minutes. Achraf Hakimi stepped up and curled in a magnificent free-kick from the right-hand side of the penalty area.
Marseille came close to equalising after 23 minutes when Vitinha was found in the penalty area but the Portugal U21 international could only divert his header onto the top of the crossbar.
PSG suffered a blow after 32 minutes when Mbappe, who had tried to continue on with an ankle injury, was eventually forced off and replaced by Goncalo Ramos.
The Parisians consoled themselves with Mbappe’s absence by doubling their advantage just seven minutes later.
Hakimi struck a fierce effort from distance which crashed off the post with Randal Kolo Muani on hand to fire home the rebound past Pau Lopez.
PSG made an even quicker start to the second half than they did in the first, with Ramos popping up to head home an Ousmane Dembele cross just two minutes into the second period.
The hosts continued to dominate proceedings in the second half, moving the ball about with a swagger and completely suffocating Marseille when they had the ball.
They grabbed their fourth goal of the night courtesy of Ramos after some great work from Kolo Muani.
Danilo Pereira headed clear a Marseille free-kick and Kolo Muani was able to accelerate through the gears down the right-hand side before finding Ramos in the centre who clipped his effort over Lopez.
