"It was a good match," said PSG forward Neymar who provided the assist for Kylian Mbappé's first-half leveller. "We started poorly by conceding a goal quickly, but we recovered well and put in a good performance to lead 3-1. We took some risks and they got back level but that's football. We're a great side and we've had a great season. We're happy to be in first and to have already won the league."

Lyon outclass Marseille

"It's hard to lose this game; they won because they played better than us," said Marseille goalkeeper Pau Lopez. "We understand that everybody will go home unhappy after this game and I am sorry for that. It was a very important game for us but Lyon were the better team."

Lyon coach Peter Bosz added: "Winning at the Velodrome is a good thing for us. My players are so happy in the changing room. The other results this weekend mean that it still might be possible for us to qualify for Europe next season. It's not impossible, and my players believe we can achieve it."
