Nuno Mendes scored a first-half penalty and provided an assist for Desire Doue as Paris Saint-Germain moved back to the top of Ligue 1 with a resounding 4-0 victory at struggling 10-man Nice on Saturday, Reuters reported.
PSG move to 60 points from 26 games, one more than second-placed Lens who won 5-1 at Angers on Friday, and have a game in hand. Nice are on 27 points from 27 games, five points above the relegation zone.
After missing several chances, the visitors took the lead on 42 minutes when Nice defender Morgan Sanson was adjudged to have handled the ball in the box from Doue’s shot, according to Reuters.
