On the evening of the 23rd "Ligue 1" began, in which at least temporarily the defending champion "Paris Saint-Germain" rose to the second place in the tournament table. The team from the French capital faced off against the league mid-table team "Rennes". Despite the different positions of the clubs in the table, the match was a tense battle. Laurent Blanc's players were slightly superior in ball control. Moreover, both teams had the same number of attempts on goal, but "Rennes" even had more shots on target. The champions were a bit more precise in finishing the attacks. The only goal of the match came in the 29th minute, when Ezequiel Lavezzi scored after a great attack. Now PSG is leading by three points ahead of third-placed "Marseille" and reduced the gap from the leader "Lyon" to just one point. On the other hand, both of these clubs will play their matches only on the weekend.
