00:00 [crowd cheering]
00:02 [whistle]
00:07 The 16th of the last 22 years,
00:11 the French champion has been either Paris Saint-Germain or Olympique Lyonnais.
00:16 Tonight they go head to head with...
00:18 Wanty,
00:20 setting their sights on another league title, and that is Paris Saint-Germain.
00:24 Danilo.
00:26 Lyon defending deep already.
00:29 Vitinha.
00:30 Bradley Barcola.
00:33 Barcola gets the bounce off Maitland-Niles.
00:37 Oh, it's nicely done and it's gone into the net!
00:43 The cross took a deflection
00:46 and Paris Saint-Germain with their first attack have taken the lead.
00:50 A nightmare start for Lopez and Lyon.
00:59 Among the goals here tonight, Bradley Barcola causing problems there.
01:03 The pass towards Vitinha takes a deflection.
01:09 I think it's Nemanja Matic who has put it into his own net.
01:12 Well, it is.
01:19 The cross was Asensio.
01:22 Now Bradley Barcola with space to run into.
01:26 This is where he's so dangerous.
01:29 Good ball from Barcola.
01:30 Gonzalo Ramos.
01:32 Ramos.
01:34 Great chance here for Colin Warnick.
01:36 Asensio to take the corner.
01:44 Oh, and it will be two!
01:47 Lyon's defending is too static.
01:50 And Peraldo has the simple task
01:53 of smashing the ball into the net
01:57 from close range.
01:58 And this could become a very, very long night for Olympic Lyonnais.
02:02 It's a good corner from Asensio, touched on
02:09 at the near post by Barcola.
02:11 And Lacazette has
02:15 lost Peraldo there.
02:17 And that is his first Ligue 1 goal
02:22 for the Brazilian who joined from Sao Paulo in January.
02:26 Barcola! Barcola! Barcola!
02:31 Good ball by Zaire Emery.
02:33 This is Marco Asensio, three on three.
02:36 Asensio goes left to Barcola.
02:39 Barcola goes on the outside of Maitland-Niles
02:43 and gets the shot away too.
02:45 And he's in such good form, such confidence.
02:55 Zaire Emery now finds space, surges into the box.
02:58 Warren Zaire Emery still going and eventually O'Brien blocks.
03:02 It's just a bit too easy at the moment for PSG to find space in that Lyon defence.
03:09 Coupe de France final coming up against Lyon, a Champions League semi-final against Dortmund
03:16 and of course the Ligue 1 title which is all but theirs.
03:19 Barcola, great first touch from Bradley Barcola.
03:23 He's striding into the box now.
03:26 Colomwane, Colomwane gets the shot away.
03:29 Can't find the target though.
03:31 Bradley Barcola cutting through.
03:34 Colomwane didn't quite get control of that.
03:41 Lacazette who's barely seen the ball in the first 19 minutes.
03:48 Here's Henrique.
03:49 Benrahma going on the outside of Hakimi.
03:54 Good cross for Lacazette. Lacazette's touch.
03:56 Well Danilo didn't take any risks there, he's collided.
04:00 Combination of Zaire Emery and Hakimi getting it back for PSG but
04:06 this is Schurke now and this is Lacazette.
04:09 Donnarumma with the save.
04:10 Well they're getting closer, you feel, the on-two.
04:15 Orsi, Alexander Lacazette with his first real sight of goal there.
04:23 Marquinhos to Barcola.
04:25 Ashraf Hakimi.
04:27 Four in the middle to eight.
04:29 Four!
04:30 It's three for Paris Saint-Germain.
04:36 And Gonçalo Ramos comes across to thank Ashraf Hakimi.
04:42 It was a pinpoint cross and Ramos doesn't miss from there.
04:46 This season for Gonçalo Ramos.
04:51 He's got it all!
04:52 Just found space between O'Brien and Maitland-Niles and this game
04:58 could well be over as a contest already.
05:01 Good ball. Hakimi in the box. Ashraf Hakimi's passed the keeper.
05:12 And now Barcola! Off the post.
05:15 Goal!
05:16 Can Creighton let it out?
05:22 Nuama.
05:30 Bit of space for Maitland-Niles now. Back to Nuama.
05:33 Nuama still going. Gets the shot away!
05:38 And finds the back of the net.
05:40 So Lyon
05:43 get themselves a lifeline.
05:45 Donnarumma looks unhappy. He was slow to get down to that.
05:48 Ernest Nuama with his third Ligue 1 goal.
05:53 It's a good low shot.
05:55 And Lyon have reduced the Arrers.
06:01 Benrama finding Ernest Nuama.
06:08 Nuama. Another shooting chance for Hemel!
06:13 It's only just wide. Lyon very close to making it 3-2 here.
06:17 Does it clip the post on its way behind it?
06:24 Brilliant from Gattini. And now Dier-Emerick.
06:31 PSG are away once more.
06:34 This is Asensio! That's four!
06:41 Gonzalo Ramos again!
06:43 An absolutely deadly counter-attack from Paris Saint-Germain.
06:52 And the home side snuff out any by him.
06:58 Zaire-Emerick striding forward.
07:01 Perfect pass for Asensio.
07:04 And he just invites Gonzalo Ramos onto this one.
07:08 Does really well, Ramos.
07:10 His second of the night. He's into double figures for the season now.
07:13 Akemi to Asensio.
07:18 Vitinha.
07:21 Lyon continuing to press.
07:25 Benrama with the shot. It's touched behind by Donnarumma.
07:29 And that is half-time at the Parc des Princes.
07:38 An absolutely superb first half from Paris Saint-Germain.
07:42 It's Lyon who get us back underway in the second half at the Parc des Princes.
07:51 Lyon who are staring down the barrel. 4-1 down at half-time.
07:56 And with an awful lot of work to do, they have sent on another defender, Clinton Mata.
08:01 Danilo.
08:08 The pressure just continues on the Lyon goal. This is Gonzalo Ramos with the shot.
08:12 It's Greta Lopez. He's got his eyes on a hat-trick, Gonzalo Ramos.
08:17 Lyon and for their coach Pierre Sage, his first time at the Parc des Princes.
08:29 First team coach. Here's Bradley Barcelá.
08:33 Barcelá into the box. Barcelá.
08:36 And he's put it wide.
08:37 But again he's...
08:39 That's Maitland-Niles popping up in a left-wing position now.
08:46 He's stopped playing right back in any case. Maitland-Niles.
08:50 Still Maitland-Niles. Gets the cut back in.
08:55 And the shot by Ryan Scherke is saved by Donnarumma.
08:59 Made by Ainsley Maitland-Niles who's been given a different role now it seems by Pierre Sage.
09:03 He's playing on the left in a more advanced role.
09:06 Lyon preparing a change as PSG prepare to take a free-kick.
09:13 Corentin Tolisso will be coming on in a moment.
09:16 This is Barcelá. Barcelá into the box.
09:19 Gets the shot away again. He's such a...
09:22 Barcelá.
09:24 Goes in between two Lyon men.
09:26 Gets the...
09:27 Matic. Good ball from Matic. Chance here for Kakaray.
09:35 Saved by the keeper again.
09:37 Donnarumma with a really good stop. Kakaray.
09:41 It could and probably should have been 4-2.
09:43 He's hit it firmly Kakaray but straight at the keeper.
09:47 Nuama finds Maitland-Niles. Gift-Orban with space.
09:54 It's a good ball from Maitland-Niles.
09:56 Here's Orban.
09:57 Kakaray calling for it to his left.
10:00 Gift-Orban going it alone and it's saved by López.
10:05 Happy with the Nigerian for going it alone but he nearly scored.
10:11 O'Brien to Maitland-Niles.
10:17 Who hasn't gone off Ainsley Maitland-Niles.
10:19 This is Mama Balde.
10:21 Shot on perhaps for Kakaray and it's deflected wide.
10:24 Off Danilo.
10:26 Got some good tests coming up.
10:34 They'll play Monaco next weekend and then Lille the week after that.
10:37 Maitland-Niles to Mama Balde.
10:40 The Guinean attacker.
10:43 Into the box. Still Mama Balde. The shot's deflected.
10:47 It's in.
10:48 They are virtually in an unassailable position now.
10:55 Parry's such a man.
10:56 And it's Parry Singerman the winner today. 4-1.
11:07 What a victory today for the home team.
11:10 For the leaders of this tournament.
