PARIS: Paris St Germain’s Ligue 1 title hopes took a major knock on Sunday when the defending champions were held to a 1-1 draw at Stade Rennes, leaving Lille holding a three-point advantage at the top with two games remaining.
Lille, on 79 after thrashing neighbours RC Lens 3-0 away on Friday, need four points from their last two matches against mid-table St Etienne and Angers to guarantee their first Ligue 1 title since 2011. PSG, who were knocked out in the Champions League semifinals by Manchester City on Tuesday, could face the prospect of finishing the season without a major trophy.“When you are PSG you have to do much better than that. Lille are very good, very strong. There are two matches left but we have to believe,” said PSG captain Marquinhos.
PSG threatened early on through Ander Herrera and Neymar, but Rennes were quick on the break, with Jeremy Doku proving a nightmare to handle for Layvin Kurzawa on the right flank.
