Adrien Rabiot was robbed of possession by Pierre Lees-Melou and he laid the ball off for Tavares to curl beyond Areola. Thiago Motta had a chance to re-establish PSG's advantage in the 42nd minute, however, Kurzawa's left-wing cross came at an awkward height and he volleyed wide.PSG started the second half on the front foot and Julian Draxler saw a curling effort deflected over the bar. Another blocked Draxler effort was clawed away by Reynet, but PSG looked to be running out of ideas and the Dijon goalkeeper barely had to work to keep out Blaise Matuidi's drive from the edge of the area. However, captain Silva bundled home from point-blank range nine minutes from time after Reynet had tipped Motta's header onto the post before Cavani flicked home Goncalo Guedes' drive following neat build-up play from Draxler and Hatem Ben Arfa.</blockquote>
