Paris St Germain took provisional top spot in Ligue 1 with a comfortable 3-0 home win over Montpellier thanks to goals from Lee Kang-in, Warren Zaire-Emery and Vitinha on Friday.<\/p>\n
The hosts took the lead after 10 minutes through Lee who fired into the top corner following a low cross from Achraf Hakimi that Kylian Mbappe\u00a0dummied for the South Korean.<\/p>\n
The pass came across goal and forward Mbappe left the ball on the edge of the box before Lee scored.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The visitors tried to find an equaliser but instead PSG’s exciting 17-year-old prospect Zaire-Emery thundered the ball home after Ousmane Dembele’s back-heel in the 58th minute.<\/p>\n
Hakimi was on hand once more eight minutes later to cross for substitute Vitinha to slam the ball into the corner.<\/p>\n

Luis Enrique’s PSG side had the ball in the net again in added time but the effort was disallowed for offside.<\/p>\n
PSG lead the table on 24 points, two ahead of Nice who host Stade Rennes on Sunday. Montpellier are 11th with 11 points.<\/p>\n
Montpellier, meanwhile, were playing their first game without former Liverpool defender Mamadou Sakho, who departed the club after a clash with his manager.<\/p>\n
Sakho reportedly grabbed\u00a0Michel Der Zakarian by the collar and knocked him to the ground after being called a ‘cry baby’ in training, but refused to accept any blame in his departure message shared on social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n
