But that failed to  usher in a period of PSG bombardment, with their next opportunity not presenting  itself until the 25th minute, when Julian Draxler shot over from 20 yards after  Mbappe's cut-back.   Di Maria went close again a few moments later, his 25-yard strike flying past  the right-hand post with Tatarusanu looking beaten.PSG continued to threaten  from distance after the break, with Di Maria – again – and Mbappe shooting just  off target in the first 12 minutes.   Draxler thought he opened the scoring after an hour, but VAR proved the ball  went out of play in the build-up, despite Marco Verratti's best efforts.There  was no denying Mbappe 22 minutes from time, though, as he turned in – via the  crossbar – from close range after Marquinhos flicked on Di Maria's corner.   Di Maria saw another effort thud against the crossbar but it mattered little  as PSG secured victory to open up a 13-point lead over Lille - beaten 2-1 by  Toulouse - at the top of the table.</blockquote>
