PSG 2-0 Auxerre: European champions return to top of Ligue 1 after comfortable victory
"Illia Zabarnyi gave the Luis Enrique's side the lead shortly after the half-hour mark when he volleyed home Vitinha's cross. Lucas Beraldo then doubled the hosts' advantage 10 minutes after the break, heading in from Senny Mayulu's cross. It was a game the European champions never really looked like losing, dominating posession despite the absence of Ballon d'Or winner Ousmane Dembele, starlet Desire Doue and captain Marquinhos."
"Auxerre did carve out chances, with a fierce shot from Kevin Danois striking the woodwork and Sekou Mara seeing a header cleared off the line. There were further opportunities for the hosts but substitute Achraf Hakimi's chipped finish was ruled out for offside before Bradley Barcola sent a header over the bar. The result moves PSG three points clear of second-place Marseille ahead of a mouth-watering Champions League trip to Barcelona on Wednesday."
