Marquinhos rescues last-gasp draw for PSG at Lille in Ligue 1

Marquinhos scored a last-minute equaliser as Paris Saint-Germain managed a 2-2 draw against Lille in Ligue 1 on Friday. PSG were trailing 2-0 with 90 minutes played when Lille's Hakon Haraldsson and Dilane Bakwa put them behind. Vitinha's goal in the opening minute revived PSG, and Marquinhos headed in the equaliser to earn a point.

This was the second time in a row PSG had come from two goals down to force a draw. The reigning French and European champions failed to score before the match ended. Lille, coached by Davide Ancelotti, who previously worked with Marquinhos at Brazil's World Cup staff, suffered a setback. PSG remains without a win at the start of their Ligue 1 season.
