Psg Edge Lyon 3-2 Hakimi And Dembele Shine In Thrilling Clash

Achraf Hakimi scored twice and Ousmane Dembele continued his blistering form as Paris Saint-Germain PSG edged Lyon 3-2 on Sunday to maintain their unbeaten record in Ligue 1 this season.

After a goalless first half, the match sprang to life in the second period, with Hakimi breaking the deadlock in the 53rd minute before Dembele doubled PSG's lead moments later.

Lyons Rayan Cherki pulled one back in the 83rd minute, but Hakimi struck again to restore PSG's two-goal advantage. Corentin Tolisso netted in stoppage time to set up a nervy finish, but Luis Enrique's side held on for the win.

With this victory, PSG have now won 18 and drawn five of their 23 Ligue 1 matches, sitting a commanding 13 points clear of second-placed Marseille.

The team has really grown in terms of character. We showed great emotional and physical control, said Luis Enrique after the match.
