Paris Saint-Germain once again underlined its class on matchday 18 of Ligue 1 with a convincing 3-0 win in the top match against Lille. Ousmane Dembélé, brand new winner of the Ballon d’Or, stole the show in the Parc des Princes with two goals, including a masterful lob.
Paris Saint-Germain took control early on, with a good long shot from Dembélé.
Lille, with Nathan Ngoy in the starting line-up and Thomas Meunier as a substitute, initially held up well, but collapsed physically in the second half.
After the hour, the highlight of the evening followed: Ousmane Dembélé dribbled free into the box and outwitted the visiting goalkeeper with a perfect, high-placed lob. In extra time, Barcola made it 3-0.
Lille OSC could have moved up to third place if they won, but the team from Lille remains fourth. Thanks to the victory, PSG takes over the lead from RC Lens, although the latter has played one match less.
