Paris Saint-Germain have extended their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table with a win over Montpellier on Sunday. The French giants moved eight points clear of second-placed Lyon, who were held by Toulouse in their previous match.
Meanwhile, Lille have risen to fourth place after defeating Stade de Reims 2-1. The victory was the first for the Ligue 1 side since their relegation from the Premier League last season and came despite missing several key players through injury or suspension.
In other matches, Monaco defeated Nice 2-1 to extend their unbeaten run to nine games, while Marseille drew 1-1 with Rennes in a game that saw the two sides battle it out for second place in the league standings.
Elsewhere, Lens lost 1-0 to AS Monaco, while Nantes fell to a surprise defeat against Amiens. The defeat means that Nantes have now dropped into fifth place in the table, behind PSG, Lyon, Lille and Marseille.
It seems that Paris Saint-Germain are well on their way to winning another Ligue 1 title this season. With only six more rounds left in the season, they will be looking to consolidate their position as leaders and continue their impressive form. Meanwhile, Lille's rise to fourth place is a significant achievement for a team that has struggled in recent years. It shows that hard work and determination can pay off and that there is still much to play for in the league.
