Paris Saint-Germain thought they had opened the scoring against Stade Rennais when Marquinhos scored. However, after a VAR review, the goal was waved off, keeping the scoreline at 0-0.
Following that no-goal call, the Parisians would again find the back of the net, with Bradley Barcola, who had gone three matches at the club level without scoring, beating veteran goalkeeper Steve Mandanda.
The reigning Ligue 1 champions will look to maintain this lead as they build positive momentum for next week’s clash against Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League.
