Paris Saint-Germain extended their lead in the French top flight with a comfortable 5-0 victory over Lyon on Sunday, while Monaco climbed to third place after beating Bordeaux.
PSG's win came against one of the league's most formidable opponents, as they dominated possession and outscored Lyon 8-2 in total. The hosts scored three goals in the first half, with Neymar netting twice before Mbappe added another in the second. Lyon, who had looked strong throughout, were unable to respond, and PSG sealed their victory with two more goals from Kylian Mbappe.
The result moves PSG up to five points clear of Lyon in second place, with Arsenal trailing them by four. Monaco's victory over Bordeaux was also significant, as it moved them into third place for the first time since the start of the season. They now sit seven points behind PSG, but have improved their position significantly compared to where they started the campaign.
Overall, the weekend's results show that PSG remain the dominant force in the league, while Monaco have shown signs of improvement. It will be interesting to see how these teams perform going forward, as both teams look to secure their spot at the top of the table.
