Half-Time Report: Paris Saint-Germain lead Reims by two at half time

PSG lead by two at half time

Paris Saint-Germain are beating Reims 2-0 at half time in Ligue 1 thanks to goals from Edinson Cavani and Adrien Rabiot.

With their five Ligue 1 titles being commemorated on the Parc des Princes pitch, it was PSG who started the match on the front foot.

Javier Pastore's shot was blocked in the fifth minute, before Cavani's shot was deflected for a corner by Reims goalkeeper Kossi Agassa.

Reims were able to nullify the PSG threat until the 27th minute, when Thiago Silva's slide-rule pass found Pastore, but the Argentine's shot went narrowly over the crossbar.

David N'Gog then had a sight of goal two minutes later, but his long-range effort was saved by PSG deputy goalkeeper Nicolas Douchez.

Cavani broke the deadlock on the half-hour mark, scoring from close range after Marco Verratti's through ball.

Pastore then had a brilliant chance to double PSG's lead, but he sent the ball wide of the target from six yards.

Rabiot added PSG's second on the verge of half time, beating Agassa from inside the penalty area.
