The Parisian team, set to face Barcelona in the Champions League, held their own despite the valiant efforts of the Marcelo Bielsa side.
PSG had to wait until the start of the second half to tip the balance of the game in their favour. Prior to that, two goals from Andre-Pierre Gignac, the first half an hour in and the second two minutes before the break, put the pressure on the champions, kept afloat by a goal from Blaise Matuidi in the 35th minute.
The shift of power came early on in the second half, after just two minutes. Marquinhos picked up the ball inside the area from a free kick and put it away, while Jeremy Morel scored an own goal just two minutes later, handing the advantage to the visitors - which they maintained to the final whistle to secure the win.
