Ousmane Dembélé struck twice as Paris Saint-Germain returned to the top of Ligue 1 with an assured win over Lille.
The France international put PSG ahead early, bending a precise low shot into the corner from 20 yards.
He doubled his tally shortly after the hour at the Parc des Princes, producing a sublime chipped finish from the edge of the area.
Bradley Barcola sealed the victory deep into stoppage time, pouncing on a defensive mix-up from Lille.
Although Dembélé claimed the Ballon d’Or last season, injuries have disrupted his current campaign.
PSG head coach Luis Enrique praised the 28-year-old’s attacking impact but stressed the need for greater defensive contribution.
“People will say Ousmane is the best player, but for me, not yet,” Enrique said.
“We need to see the best version of him defensively. He showed that last season, and he must keep doing so.”
PSG now sit two points clear of Lens, who can reclaim top spot with a victory over Auxerre on Saturday.
