PSG need some kind of result here tonight against Manchester City (themselves in only a slightly less precarious position) to go into next week with a realistic chance of qualifying
Dembélé, who missed the last two games through illness, starts from the bench - Kang-in Lee starts instead

PLAYER RATINGS | PSG 3-1 Lyon: League leaders go 7 points clear.
-> Désiré Doué - 7
-> Georges Mikautadze - 6
-> Ousmane Dembélé - 6
-> Ainsley Maitland-Niles - 2
✍️ @rafajuc.bsky.social reporting from the Parc des Princes
FT | PSG 3-1 Lyon:
A late Ramos strike, from a Barcola shot spilled by Perri, eventually put PSG out of strike. The league leaders go seven points clear, after a match that was notably stopped for several minutes due to offensive chanting from the home fans.
88 | GOAL: PSG 3-1 Lyon (Ramos)
52 | Achraf Hakimi and Vitinha have gone over to the PSG ultras - after a discussion with the referee - to ask to them stop offensive chanting.
HT | PSG 2-1 Lyon:
The hosts dominating proceedings after those two early goals (Dembélé and Vitinha, the latter from the spot), but Lyon pulled one back with a fantastic chipped finish from Mikautadze. Les Gones will have had a strong case for a penalty before that, when Doué brought down Nuamah.
39 | GOAL: PSG 2-1 Lyon (Mikautadze)
14 | GOAL: PSG 2-0 Lyon (Vitinha)
8 | GOAL: PSG 1-0 Lyon (Dembélé)

PLAYER RATINGS | PSG 1-1 Nantes: League leaders held at home as Les Canaris end losing streak.
-> Nicolas Pallois, 8
-> Patrik Carlgren, 7
-> Gonçalo Ramos, 5
-> João Neves, 4
✍️ @rafajuc.bsky.social reporting from the Parc des Princes
FT | PSG 1-1 Nantes:
The league leaders drop two points, as Les Canaris earn a well-deserved point to end their losing streak. Luis Enrique's men struggled to break down a well-drilled defence, led by the reliably authoritative Nicolas Pallois.
HT | PSG 1-1 Nantes:
Achraf Hakimi put the hosts ahead early on, but a well-taken equaliser from Abline would punish PSG for their profligacy in front of goal in the rest of the opening 45 minutes.
