Paris St-Germain staged an improbable comeback, scoring twice in injury time to draw 2-2 with Lille in their Ligue 1 title defence. Olivier Giroud had given the visitors hope with two early goals, setting up Hakon Haraldsson to score from 20 yards and Dilane Bakwa to curl in a fine second. Vitinha added a third in the 91st minute, leaving PSG one goal down.
Four minutes later, Vitinha's cross found Marquinhos, who headed in an equaliser. This was PSG's second draw in as many weekends as they began their title defence. Manager Davide Ancelotti's team had looked set for a second straight win under his guidance, thanks to the goals from Giroud and Bakwa. Vitinha sealed things for PSG with a late strike.
Last week, PSG had battled back from a 2-0 deficit against Rennes to draw, but they have yet to record a domestic victory this season. They did, however, beat Aston Villa 2-1 in the UEFA Super Cup.
