PSG return to Ligue 1 summit with 3-0 win over Le Havre

Paris St-Germain moved back to the top of Ligue 1 with a hard-fought 3-0 victory over Le Havre at Parc des Princes, extending their unbeaten run to eight matches.

Goals from Lee Kang-in, João Neves and Bradley Barcola secured the win for the reigning champions, but the scoreline did not reflect the visitors’ threat.

PSG goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier was forced into several outstanding saves, including a full-stretch stop to tip a deflection off Warren Zaïre-Emery that was scrambled clear.

Lee opened the scoring minutes later, firing a first-time effort that bounced off goalkeeper Mory Diaw and into the net.

Chevalier later pushed away a Yanis Zouaoui free-kick, and PSG doubled their lead soon after, with Neves smashing in a rebound off the post following another Diaw save.

Le Havre came close to halving the deficit when Issa Soumaré struck the woodwork, but Barcola made the result safe, finishing calmly after a well-timed run down the right for his fifth goal of the season.

PSG now sit two points clear of Marseille and Lens at the top of the table and turn their attention to a Champions League meeting with Tottenham on Wednesday.
