Le Parisiens claimed a 4–0 victory over Reims at the Parc des Princes Stadium in Paris on Sunday, 16 May local time. Reported by Antara on Monday, May 17, mauricio Pochettino's team benefited greatly after Reims had to continue the game with 10 players since the 10th minute because Yunis Abdelhamid was sent off by referee Clement Turpin.Abdelhamid was shown a straight red card because the Reims defender deliberately blocked Kylian Mbappe's shot which had gone over the goal line.

In addition to the red card, PSG were also awarded a penalty kick which was successfully converted by Neymar to give the hosts the lead in the 13th minute. Mbappe doubled PSG's lead in the 24th minute through his clever cut through thomas foket pass towards Wout Faes before subduing goalkeeper Predrag Rajkovic with a fierce shot.

PSG's victory was completed by Moise Kean a minute before normal time when he calmly completed Rafinha's cross.In another match at the Pierre-Mauroy Stadium, the bad trend of home matches came back to haunt Lille after they failed to get three points as they were beaten by Saint-Etienne with a scoreless draw. Lille's dominance of 59 per cent possession and 14 shot attempts did not result in a single goal. One of Lille's best chances came in the 36th minute with a quick strike that ended with Burak Yilmaz's cross, but Luiz Araujo's finish was narrowly missed on the side of the goal.

Lille, meanwhile, had to go to angers' headquarters to beat them 1-2 in the first meeting of the season.
