Dominated at the break, PSG overthrew Montpellier 3 to 1, taking advantage of the exclusion of Pedro Mendes (72) to score three goals in seven minutes by Neymar on free kick (74), Kylian Mbappé (76) and Mauro Icardi ( 81st).
The championship leader, who is eight points clear of his runner-up Marseille, has recovered from a disastrous start, between the outings on injury of Presnel Kimpembe and Idrissa Gueye and the goal against his camp Leandro Paredes (41) in the first period.
PSG did not quench doubts
PSG's victory came at the end of the match after the second yellow card received by Mendes for an uncontrolled tackle on Neymar. The Brazilian has done justice by depositing a direct free kick in the skylight of the Montpellier goalkeeper, before delivering a decisive pass for Mbappé.
Four days before Galatasaray's UEFA Champions League reception, Thomas Tuchel's side has not quashed the doubts they've had in recent games. But she managed to avoid a fourth defeat this season in the league, Montpellier where Paris had not won since August 2015.
The match ended in a tense atmosphere at Mosson. Paris goalkeeper Kaylor Navas received a bottle of water from the stands, which hit him in the face. The referee Antony Gauthier stopped the match three minutes, the time to look after the Costa Rican goalkeeper.
