PSG beat Lyon 1-0 thanks to an early goal from Lionel Messi, reclaiming first place in Ligue 1 ahead of Marseille on Sunday.
Messi’s fifth-minute goal broke Cristiano Ronaldo’s record of 671 non-penalty goals, giving PSG four wins in four Ligue 1 games.
Neymar set up Argentina’s forward with his seventh assist in eight Ligue 1 games.
PSG moved two points ahead of Marseille, who had taken the lead earlier in the day with a 1-1 draw against Rennes at home.
Lorient are three points behind the leaders after defeating Auxerre 3-1.
Lens dropped to fourth place following a goalless draw in Nantes.
“PSG played a fantastic game tonight against a tough team that was expecting us,” said PSG coach Christophe Galtier.
