Lyon stun PSG to reduce the Ligue 1 leaders’ advantage to one point.
Early Sunday, Lyon defeated Paris Saint-Germain 2-1 at Parc des Princes. Endrick scored the first goal for Lyon in the sixth minute. Afonso Moreira doubled the lead just twelve minutes later, finding the net in the 18th minute.
PSG struggled to respond. They did not manage an attempt on goal until the 20th minute. The home side finally found a consolation goal in stoppage time through Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, marking his 14th league goal of the season.
But it was not enough to change the outcome. PSG had a penalty saved by Dominik Greif during the match, further hindering their chances.
Lyon’s victory moved them from sixth to third place in Ligue 1. This win marks their first over PSG since April 2023. With six games remaining, Lyon now occupies the final Champions League spot.
As of midday Sunday, PSG remains one point ahead of second-placed Lens. They still have a game in hand, but pressure mounts as they prepare for their upcoming match against Lens next month.
Endrick’s goal was his fourth league goal of the season. His performance today was pivotal for Lyon’s success against their rivals.
This match has significant implications for both teams as they approach the final stretch of the season. Details remain unconfirmed regarding any injuries or other incidents during the game.
