Neymar double wins Paris win over Lille

>> Paris won 2-0 in Lille at the end of the 21st day of Ligue 1. More realistic than Lille in the first period, the Parisians opened the scoring on a splendid inspiration from Neymar, who found the right skylight de Maignan, who could do nothing (1-0, 28th). In the second half, Lille awaited a whistle in front of the Paris area, but the referee of the meeting assured that there was no fault on Ikoné. On the counter, Paris quickly found itself in the Lille area and Reinildo touched the ball with his hand, causing a penalty. Maignan started on the right side, but could not reject the attempt by Neymar, who doubled the bet (2-0, 52nd). PSG then controlled the meeting. Rémy thought he would allow Lille to return to the score in stoppage time, but the Dogues' striker has rightly been flagged as offside.

>> Thanks to this victory, Paris is ten points ahead of Marseille at the top of the ranking. The Parisians are also ideally preparing for their Champions League knockout round against Dortmund (next month), chaining a fourth consecutive success and a 17th undefeated match. Next meeting for Parisians, from Wednesday in the French Cup. Thomas Tuchel's men will face Pau before receiving Montpellier in the championship on Saturday.

>> For Lille, it's a second straight defeat in the league, after that against Dijon, two weeks ago. The Lille are falling to the seventh to eleven points already from Marseille (2nd), six from Rennes (3rd) and only two from Montpellier (4th). They must face Epinal in the French Cup, mid-week, before moving to Strasbourg, next weekend, to relaunch.
