Kylian Mbappe scored his 19th league goal of the season as Paris St-Germain won at 10-man Lens to move eight points clear at the top of Ligue 1.
On Saturday, second-placed Nice had missed the chance to cut the gap to two points as they lost at Rennes.
PSG took full advantage as Bradley Barcola converted from Kylian Mbappe’s assist in the first half before Mbappe struck late on.
Lens had defender Jonathan Gradit sent off on the stroke of half-time.
PSG have lost just once in Ligue 1 this season and look firmly on course to retain their title.
