Paris Saint-germain Nears Ligue 1 Title After Beating Marseille

Paris Saint-Germain PSG took a major step toward retaining their Ligue 1 title with a commanding 3-1 victory over fierce rivals Marseille on Sunday.

However, the match between Montpellier and Saint-Etienne was abandoned due to crowd disturbances.

Fresh off their Champions League triumph over Liverpool, PSG asserted their dominance at the Parc des Princes in a top-of-the-table clash.

Ousmane Dembele continued his blistering form by netting the opener, followed by Nuno Mendes adding a second before halftime. Despite Amine Gouiri pulling one back for Marseille, an own goal from Pol Lirola sealed PSG's victory.

Luis Enrique's squad remains unbeaten in Ligue 1 after 26 matches and has extended their lead at the summit to 19 points with just eight fixtures remaining.
