With Lens dropping points against Monaco earlier in the day, Luis Enrique’s side took full advantage. Désiré Doué broke the deadlock early, and Bradley Barcola doubled the lead before halftime. Gonçalo Ramos added a third late on to secure the win.
The match saw PSG dominate possession, though they had to wait for the goals. Despite a brief threat from Metz substitute Bouna Sarr, the holders saw out the game comfortably to move back to the summit of the table.
