sport">The unbeatable leader of the Ligue 1 defeated Montpellier, the number 4 in the ranking that had to play with ten men for almost 70 minutes, 5-0. Goalkeeper Dimitry Bertaud was sent off with a red card after 17 minutes because of a nasty stroke of the ball outside the penalty area. The keeper of Montpellier had come far from his goal to stop the broken Kylian Mbappé.
sport">PSG already led 1-0 thanks to a goal from Pablo Sarabia. Shortly before half-time the home club ran out to 3-0, via Angel Di Maria and an own goal from Daniel Congré. Mbappé and Layvin Kurzawa also scored in the second half. Star player Neymar, who had a striking pink hairstyle and walked onto the field during the warm-up in a shirt of the deceased basketball player Kobe Bryant, was unable to expand his total of thirteen league goals.
sport">Shortly before time, substitute Joris Chotard was also sent away with two yellow cards, as a result of which Montpellier ended the game with nine players.
