Paris St-Germain overcame the early sending off of goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma to win at Le Havre and move four points clear at the top of Ligue 1.
Donnarumma was dismissed in the 10th minute after he stopped Josue Casimir’s run outside the box.
Despite that, PSG opened the scoring when Kylian Mbappe fired his 15th goal of the season in off the post.
Vitinha made the win safe in the final minute with a deflected strike.
Goalkeeper Arnau Tenas had come on to make his professional debut, going in goal after Donnarumma’s dismissal.
PSG boss Luis Enrique praised the 22-year-old’s performance.
“I am very proud of what the team showed, the mentality, the ability to adapt to the different things that happened during the game and the team spirit,” he said.
“We didn’t concede too many chances and the ones we did concede were saved by Arnau.”
