Match Report

The champions were far from their best, the two remaining members of their feared front three went off injured, they missed a penalty and yet Toulouse were still lucky to lose 4-0.

Choupo-Moting will take a huge boost from his brace, while Marquinhos took his header well and Goncalves was unlucky to turn in an own goal. His handball resulted in the penalty which Di Maria saw saved, but in the end it could hardly have mattered less. PSG return to winning ways at a canter.

Match Events

14' Cavani subbed off with injury

Cavani can't carry on after tweaking his groin a few minutes ago. He's replaced by Choupo-Moting, putting even more responsibility on Mbappe to provide a spark.

50' GOAL! PSG 1-0 Toulouse (Choupo-Moting)

It's a wonderful goal from Choupo-Moting! He gets the ball on the edge of the area thanks to a rebound, twists and turns between four defenders, and fires in off the left post. 

55' OWN GOAL! PSG 2-0 Toulouse (Goncalves)

It's an unfortunate one, and it'll go down as an own goal for the youngster Goncalves. Di Maria crosses low from the left, Sarabia gets to it beyond the back post and flicks it back across goal, and Goncalves can only divert it in from point-blank range.

66' Mbappe subbed off with leg injury

Zagre comes on for Mbappe, who is a sorry sight. He trudges down the tunnel with a physio, his hand on his left hamstring. Another massive blow for PSG.

71' Penalty Missed! (Di Maria)

VAR confirms the decision after a check, Goncalves guilty under the new handball rules after falling onto the ball. Di Maria to take...

Di Maria steps up to take it, hits it hard to the keeper's right but he gets a strong hand and pushes it wide. It's not a great penalty, in all honesty.

75' GOAL! PSG 3-0 Toulouse (Choupo-Moting)

 The main men may be gone but this is Choupo-Moting's night! Sarabia threads a lovely pass for Di Maria down the left, he holds the ball up and lays off Bernat on the overlap, and he squares for Choupo-Moting to sidefoot powerfully inside the near post with his right foot.

83' GOAL! PSG 4-0 Toulouse (Marquinhos)

Di Maria delivers the corner from the left and Marquinhos rises to pummel a header into the bottom-left corner from the centre of the box.
