The leader maintains the pace. Logical winner against Toulouse (3-0), Friday November 22, Saint-Germain is not keen to let Monaco get back on its heels. Two hours after the success of its runner-up (3-2 against ), the capital club did the essential, without pulling out all the stops, to maintain a six-point lead at the top of Ligue 1.

Rarely worried, Luis Enrique's players created a definitive gap by opening the score in the first period. With a superb volley from Achraf Hakimi's cross, the essential Joao Neves scored his second goal of the season after that against (35th). Warren Zaire-Emery thought he would punctuate his return to form by scoring the 2-0 goal, but the VAR invalidated it for an offside position by Marco Asensio (54th).

It was when Paris began to suffer chances, at the end of the match, that the capital club killed the suspense. Lucas Beraldo made the break thanks to a well-aimed half-volley after a poorly repelled ball (84th), then the incoming Vitinha added to the score (90th+1) on a good service from another incoming player, Randal Kolo Muani.

Four days before the clash against Bayern Munich (also a 3-0 winner against Augsburg), crucial for the future of the capital club in the Champions League, Paris got back on track in the right way after the international break . No injuries, no goals conceded, a 14th match in a row without defeat in Ligue 1… The mission is accomplished.
