Samuel Umtiti goal holds Paris Saint-Germain to draw

Paris Saint-Germain are held to a 1-1 draw with Lyon thanks to Samuel Umtiti's late equaliser.

Paris Saint-Germain were held to a 1-1 draw with Lyon at the Parc des Princes this evening.

Edinson Cavani gave the home side the lead when he met a Lucas Digne cross with a header on 20 minutes. However, Samuel Umtiti struck with six minutes of normal time remaining to earn a share of the spoils for the visiting OL.

Earlier in the game, Yohan Cabaye wasted a good chance to open the scoring when he sliced wide with goal at his mercy after good play involving Zlatan Ibrahimovic.

Arnold Mvuemba nearly evened things up towards the end of the half, but his free kick could only find the woodwork with Salvatore Sirigu beaten in the PSG goal.

Lyon had a chance to steal it, but Corentin Tolisso blazed an effort over the bar after he was teed up by Alexandre Lacazette.

PSG thought that they had won it in the last minute, but Lucas Moura had fouled the goalkeeper prior to Marco Verratti's finish.
