Paris Saint-Germain outclassed in-form Lyon on Sunday, winning 3-1 to extend their lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table to seven points.
Ousmane Dembele opened the scoring at the Parc des Princes and Vitinha added a penalty as PSG raced into a two-goal lead in what was expected to be one of the biggest tests of their credentials domestically this season.
Georges Mikautadze pulled one back for Lyon before the break but they never really looked like equalising and substitute Goncalo Ramos wrapped up the points for PSG late on.
The game was also notable for a brief stoppage in play in the second half due to derogatory songs being sung by the PSG support, with home captain Achraf Hakimi having to go across and plead with the crowd to stop.
PSG could face disciplinary action due to the chants which have already been heard at previous games this season at the Parc des Princes, but otherwise it was a satisfying night for Luis Enrique's team.
The coach did not even name striker Randal Kolo Muani among the substitutes, while he also left top scorer Bradley Barcola out of the starting line-up.
Desire Doue also scored in that match after coming off the bench and the 19-year-old did start here, making a huge impact as he played a part in both goals scored by PSG in the opening quarter hour.
That made it 1-0 inside eight minutes, and Doue was then brought down in the box by Corentin Tolisso, allowing Vitinha to roll in a penalty for 2-0.
Lyon, who were unbeaten in nine in all competitions, pulled one back late in the first half when Rayan Cherki found Mikautadze in the box and the Georgian striker converted the chance.
Yet PSG comfortably held onto their lead and Ramos made it 3-1 two minutes from time, finishing after goalkeeper Lucas Perri had parried a Barcola shot.
