Neymar, PSG Squander Lead, Lose to Montpellier 3-2 in Ligue 1 Action

Paris Saint-Germain's troubled end to the season continued on Tuesday as they let slip a 2-1 lead to go down 3-2 to Montpellier.

Both teams scored own goals in an even first half at the Stade de la Mosson. PSG went ahead when Ambroise Oyongo put a Juan Bernat cross through his own net after just 12 minutes.

However, Montpellier levelled midway through the opening 45 minutes when Damien Le Tallec's header from a free-kick deflected off Presnel Kimpembe and beat goalkeeper Gianluigi Buffon.

PSG also needed Buffon to save from Andy Delort, Ellyes Skhiri and Florent Mollet before the break, while the visitors did not manage a single effort on target in the first half.
