VIDEO | Ligue 1 Highlights: PSG vs Stade Reims
PSG, sitting pretty at the top of Ligue 1 with a nine-point cushion over their closest rivals, were looking to mix things up against a surprising Reims side and stay on top. But, hey, a defensive Reims set the tone and managed to snag a point in the capital with a 2-2 scoreline.
In the first half, the Parisians got caught napping by a Reims side that capitalized on Hakimi's blunder to take the lead in the 6th minute. But you know PSG, they showed why they're top dogs by turning it around and scoring two goals in two minutes, at 19' and 17'. However, a more settled Reims side made another mistake that the visitors pounced on to level the score at 2-2 going into halftime.
The second half was a bit of a grind with Reims playing defensively, holding onto the ball. PSG, led by Luis Enrique, made some changes, bringing on Mbappe, Dembele, and others in search of three points, but couldn't pull it off, and Reims snatched a crucial point against the leaders.
With this result, PSG stays in first place with 56 points, a solid ten ahead of their closest rival who lost this round (Reims vs Lens). Meanwhile, Stade Reims climbed to 35 points, firmly entering the fight to move up from mid-table to European spots.
