The visitors missed Brazilian forward Neymar with an ankle injury and looked toothless up front in the first half, although home goalkeeper Mike Maignan did well to prevent José Fonte from scoring an own goal in the 45th minute.

Thilo Kehrer had headed right in the middle of the first half and Moise Kean hit the side net with a first shot in the 51st minute as PSG turned on the heat after the break.

Kean and Marquinhos failed to convert a low center from worker Angel Di María, who pulled all the strings of PSG in the absence of Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, who entered as a late substitute on his 22nd birthday.

The home side, reduced to sporadic attacks after dominating possession in the first 15 minutes, came close in the 75th minute when PSG goalkeeper Keylor Navas turned the post with a low shot from Burak Yilmaz.
