Paris Saint-Germain extended their winning run to six matches in all competitions by thrashing nine-man Montpellier 5-0 at the Parc des Princes on Saturday.
Pablo Sarabia and Angel Di Maria netted in the first half before a freak own-goal from Daniel Congre made it 3-0.
In the 17th minute, Montepellier goalkeeper Dimitry Bertaud was sent off for handling the ball outside the penalty area in a bid to prevent Kylian Mbappe scoring.
After the break, Mbappe and Layvin Kurzawa added to the score for the hosts, and substitute Joris Chotard was dismissed for a second bookable offence two minutes from time.
