PSG extended their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 this season to 24 matches. Paris Saint Germain cruised to a 4-1 victory over Lille on Saturday, to extend their lead in France to 16 points.
Goals from Bradley Barcola, Marquinhos, Ousmane Dembélé and Desire Doue all struck in the first half at the Parc des Princes as PSG extended their unbeaten run in Ligue 1 this season to 24 matches.
Barcola turned in the rebound to give PSG a sixth-minute lead after Lille goalkeeper Lucas Chevalier parried Dembele’s effort right into his path.
Marquinhos headed in a second from Doue’s cross and Dembele drilled in to make it 3-0 on 28 minutes, notching his league leading 18th goal of the campaign.
A brilliant strike from Doue made it the fourth time in five games PSG have scored four at home as the hosts clinched their 15th win in 16 matches since the turn of the year. David’s late goal was his 12th this term although he has only scored twice since early December in the league.
Jonathan David grabbed a consolation after coming on as a substitute for Lille. PSG are cantering towards an 11th league title in 13 years.
