BEST OF ROUND 25

Paris Saint-Germain got their revenge on Marseille, Nice were convincing winners at Monaco and Reims made it 17 games without defeat. Check out the action from Round 25 of Ligue 1 Uber Eats here!

PSG ease to Classique win

Paris Saint-Germain outclassed Marseille with a comfortable 3-0 win at the Orange Vélodrome.

Kylian Mbappé opened the scoring with a superb low finish (25') before turning creator for Lionel Messi to add a second from close range four-minutes later. Mbappé saved the best for last, volleying home Messi's lifted pass to send his side eight-points clear at the top of the table.

Marseille boss Igor Tudor said: "Mbappé had a lot of space because he is a player from another planet, quite simply. In addition to PSG's motivation, I could see they were very focussed. They ran a lot, I haven't seen them do this in a long time. It's hard for everyone when the opposing team is this good."

Nice canter to derby victory

Nice blew Monaco away with ease in the Côte d'Azur derby, winning 3-0 at the Stade Louis II.

Terem Moffi netted twice for Les Aiglons (8' & 26') before Khéphren Thuram fired in a superb third two-minutes before the interval to hand Nice a sixth win in eight games and derby bragging rights.

Rennes see off Nantes

A first-half effort from Jeremy Doku gave Rennes a 1-0 win at Nantes.

Doku provided the decisive moment with some neat footwork before firing in a 20th-minute winner to hand Rennes an important three points in the race for Europe.

LOSC complete late turnaround 

Alexsandro Ribeiro's late header handed LOSC a 2-1 win at home to Brest.

Tiago Djalo put through his own net (8') to give Brest a lead they held until the 60th minute when Bafode Diakité headed the equaliser. Ribeiro's winner ten-minutes from time gave LOSC a precious three points in their quest for European qualification.

"We played a really good match," said a delighted PSG coach Christophe Galtier. "I switched the formation to the one we used during the first four months of the season. We were much better tactically. This is an important victory that will restore confidence to the group and our supporters who were amazing against Lille last week and at the Parc des Princes for Friday's open training session. We would like to dedicate this victory to our supporters who were unable to make the trip."
