On Saturday night at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain secured a 3-1 victory over LOSC Lille in a clash between two top Ligue 1 teams.
Both teams swiftly found the net as the goals were scored early in the match. Lille took the lead in the sixth minute, exploiting PSG's defense to go 1-0 up thanks to Yusuf Yazıcı, but their lead was short-lived.
The Parisians leveled the scoring minutes later after Ousmane Dembélé found Gonçalo Ramos for their opening goal. Following the tying goal, PSG took a 2-1 lead when the ball hit off Alexsandro Ribeiro for an own goal.
In the second half, the capital club attempted to find the insurance goal as they had ten total shots in the final 45 minutes, and the third goal eventually came for Luis Enrique and his team.
Bradley Barcola, who came on as a substitute in the second half, connected with Randal Kolo Muani to make the score 3-1 and clinch the win for PSG. Lille had eight total shots as Les Dogues couldn't find the equalizer necessary to leave the French capital with a favorable result.
