Godts stars as PSG beat Lyon to go top of Ligue 1
Mika Godts came off the bench to assist Senny Mayulu’s opener before scoring himself, as PSG claimed an eighth consecutive win.
Paris St-Germain's Mika Godts scored his first goal of the season, setting up Senny Mayulu for the 72nd-minute winning strike as the reigning European champions secured a 2-0 victory over Lyon at the Parc des Princes on Monday. The game was initially scheduled for Sunday, but was postponed due to Paris police requesting resources be diverted amid violent protests in the city, coinciding with the Ballon d'Or ceremony in London where several PSG players were nominees.
Both Ousmane Dembele and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, among the Ballon d'Or nominees, were unavailable this game due to injuries. Despite injuries to Nuno Mendes, captain Marquinhos, and others, PSG maintained their focus to claim their eighth straight win in all competitions, moving to the top of the Ligue 1 table, one point ahead of Rennes.
Lyon had come close to taking the lead with two chances in the first half, but PSG's late goals ensured they claimed their fifth consecutive Ligue 1 victory.
