The match between relegation-threatened Montpellier and Saint-Etienne was called off due to crowding issues, but Paris Saint-Germain ended a fantastic week by defeating fierce rivals Marseille 3-1 on Sunday, taking a significant step towards another Ligue 1 title. In a match between the top two teams in Ligue 1, PSG defeated Marseille at the Parc des Princes on Tuesday after defeating Liverpool in the Champions League.
The first goal was scored by Ousmane Dembele, who has been in excellent form lately, and Nuno Mendes put PSG ahead 2-0 before halftime. After Amine Gouiri drew one back, Pol Lirola's own goal sealed the victory in the second half. After 26 Ligue 1 games this season, Luis Enrique's team is still undefeated and leads Marseille by an overwhelming 19 points at the top with eight games remaining. This implies that when the next round of games takes place on the last weekend of March, PSG may win the title for the eleventh time in thirteen seasons.
