The hosts took control early in the game and dominated possession throughout, creating numerous chances for striker Kylian Mbappe. The French star finally put his name on the scoresheet in the 26th minute when he latched onto a loose ball and slotted home from close range.

Lyon tried to mount a comeback in the second half, but PSG continued to dominate possession and create opportunities. In the 75th minute, Mbappe scored again, this time converting a penalty after being fouled inside the box.

As the final whistle blew, Paris Saint-Germain's lead in the league was now 9 points, with Lyon just two behind. This is a significant improvement for the club, who had been struggling towards the top of the table earlier in the season.

Meanwhile, Marseille climbed back into the top three in Ligue 1 standings after a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Nice on Sunday evening. The match was tightly contested throughout, with both teams scoring goals late in the game.

Marseille goalkeeper Hugo Lloris made some crucial saves to keep his side in the game, while Nice's forward Thiago Silva also contributed to the deadlock. However, Marseille ultimately managed to secure a point and move up to third place in the table.

Overall, these results demonstrate the resilience of both Paris Saint-Germain and Marseille in Ligue 1. Both clubs have shown that they can compete for the title, and it will be interesting to see how they perform in the remaining matches of the season.
