Marseille's Elie Baup: 'Paris Saint-Germain too many points ahead'

Elie Baup admits that Marseille's chances of winning Ligue 1 this season are slim and wants his side to concentrate on finishing in the top three.

Marseille coach Elie Baup has admitted that his side may not be able to catch Paris Saint-Germain at the top of Ligue 1.

The former French champions are seven points behind leaders PSG following their goalless away draw with Lyon on Sunday.

"There are still 10 games to go and we need to keep going," he told reporters. "The spirit we showed here can help us.

"I thought Paris would be well ahead of us and they have a comfortable gap down to the teams below them.

"Further back it is an open battle between several teams. Results elsewhere this weekend show that there are plenty of teams trying to get into Europe."

Lyon are currently four points behind PSG in second place.
