Lyon youngster Corentin Tolisso looked to set the game alight in the opening minutes when he struck a shot that clipped the post.

The away side came back when Zlatan Ibrahimovic cut the ball into the path of Edinson Cavani, who saw his shot turned round the upright by Lyon stopper Anthony Lopes.

In a game that swung from end to end, Lyon were the first side to find the net and it came through N'Jie in the 30th minute, when the striker tucked home from six yards following Nabil Fekir's flicked pass.

PSG midfielder Blaise Matuidi should have resorted parity before half time when he was found by Marquinhos, but the midfielder could only blast over without testing the keeper.
