Paris Saint-Germain edged closer to their record-extending 12th Ligue 1 title with a commanding 4-1 away win against second-from-bottom Lorient on Wednesday. Ousmane Dembélé and Kylian Mbappé each netted twice, propelling Luis Enrique's side to the brink of championship glory. A victory for second-placed Monaco against Lille later in the day could delay PSG's celebrations.

With four games remaining, PSG sit comfortably atop the table with 69 points, a staggering 14 points ahead of Monaco. However, PSG had to navigate this crucial fixture without key players Bradley Barcola, Marquinhos, Achraf Hakimi, Vitinha, and Warren Zaire-Emery, who were rested ahead of the upcoming Champions League semi-final against Borussia Dortmund.
