Paris St-Germain Loses First League Game of The Season

Paris St-Germain lost for the first time since March as they were beaten 3-1 by in-form Lens in Ligue 1.

The hosts led after five minutes when Przemyslaw Frankowski volleyed into an empty net after a rebound off Italy goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma but Hugo Ekitike quickly equalized for PSG But Lois Openda beat defender Marquinhos and fired past Donnarumma into the bottom corner to give Lens the lead again in the 28th minute.

Alexis Claude-Maurice added a third two minutes into the second half and despite Kylian Mbappe playing the full game the club from northern France held on for a notable victory.
