Paris Saint-Germain secured their second consecutive win in the French top-flight on Saturday night as they beat Marseille 2-0 at the Parc des Princes stadium. The result was a huge blow to Marseille's chances of making a push for a Champions League spot this season.

The game was dominated by PSG from the start, with Antoine Griezmann providing the first real threat early on. However, it was the visitors who were able to break the deadlock just before half-time through a well-taken goal from Florian Thauvin.

Marseille had a chance to level things up early in the second half but failed to take it, while PSG continued to dominate possession and create chances.

The home side took control of the match after the interval and scored twice in quick succession thanks to goals from Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi. The former's finish was particularly impressive, as he showed great composure to find the back of the net from close range.

PSG's victory was their third successive league win against Marseille this season, and they remain firmly in the hunt for the title. It was a good performance from the Parisians, who showed why they are considered one of the best teams in Europe.

On the other hand, Marseille will be disappointed with their defeat, especially given the way they dominated the game for much of the contest. They need to turn their attention to their upcoming fixtures and work on their weaknesses if they want to compete for major honours this season.
