Just last weekend, Lyon appeared set to move eight points clear of Marseille in third, the last automatic Champions League place, but blew a 2-1 lead late on to lose 3-2 to OM.

Marshall Munetsi was fastest onto a parried shot in the box to put Antoine Kombouare's Paris FC ahead on 63 minutes.

Lyon immediately brought on Brazilian youngster Endrick, in fine form since signing on loan from Real Madrid, but he was wasteful in front of goal.

As Lyon layed siege to the PFC goal late on, the hosts were awarded a penalty for handball and Corentin Tolisso converted from the spot in the sixth minute of added time.

"You could say there was a handball, but either way that feels like a defeat to us," said Paris FC captain Pierre Lees-Melou.
