Injured yet another five matches of the "Ligue 1" weekend. In the first of them, the leader of the tournament table "Paris Saint-Germain" secured another victory.
Parisians immediately overwhelmed the footballers of "Nantes" led by Claudio Ranieri at home, who resisted the favorites for less than a half.
In the usual dominant scenario of PSG, opponents' defense was broken in the 38th minute, when Edinson Cavani scored after Javier Pastore's pass, and shortly afterwards, the lead was doubled with a long-distance shot by Kylian Mbappe, who replaced Angel Di Maria in the starting lineup.
After an hour, the game was revived by Prejuce Nakoulma scoring, but shortly afterwards Javier Pastore scored again, and Cavani eventually finished the job for the Parisians.
Thanks to the victory of the capital team, their lead over defending champion "Monaco" increased to six points, as the latter club played a draw with "Amiens" yesterday.
In the four later matches, the second-best teams so far demonstrated not the best game. The highest-ranking team among them, "Toulouse," at home did not break the defense of the absolute underdog "Metz" with ten remaining, and the match also ended in a draw between "Guingamp" and "Angers".
At home, "Troyes" celebrated victories against "Dijon" and newcomers "Strasbourg" unexpectedly overwhelmed "Rennes".
