With last night's victory, Paris Saint Germain continues to lead the charts of Ligue 1. The match against Nice was missed by Neymar Jr due to suspension but his fellow forwards, Cavani and Di Maria, didn't let that effect the game as PSG won by 3-0.
The first goal came within two minutes of the game, when Di Maria took the free kick awarded to PSG and sent it flying into the crowd where the Uruguayan striker, who was the closest to the net connected with a header. The second goal was also Di Maria assisted. He sent the ball flying over the Nice players and found Cavani to recieve it on the other end.
A couple of attempts were made by the Nice players to score but none of them were successful. They did have good defence with a few exceptions. The third goal was a scramble for the ball that flew in, between Di Maria and the Brazilian defender, Dani Alves. While Dante, the other Brazilian defender and a player at Nice, tried to stop the ball but ended up with an own goal.
This clash left the Argentine forward, Di Maria lying on the pitch crumbled in pain but he was able to continue in the game. Cavani was seen to be in adrenaline rush throughout the play with two goals and an assist under his name. There was a momentary verbal spat between Cavani and the Nice forward,
Mario Balotelli.
The ex-Barcelona star, Neymar Jr watch the whole game in the stands and appreciated the efforts of his teammates. PSG now stands with 9 wins in this season and on top of the points chart with a lead of seven points.
