Paris Saint-Germain 6-1 Lille: Lavezzi nets hat trick as Blanc's men go on top

Ezequiel Lavezzi scored a hat trick as Paris Saint-Germain went on top of Ligue 1 in style, claiming a 6-1 win over Lille.

Paris Saint-Germain stormed to the top of Ligue 1 with an emphatic 6-1 victory over Lille at the Parc de Princes, but injuries to Salvatore Sirigu and Serge Aurier took some of the gloss off a stunning result.

Ezequiel Lavezzi claimed a memorable hat trick, with Edinson Cavani netting twice and Maxwell getting in on the act as Laurent Blanc’s men ran riot to pile the pressure on a Lyon side that now sits second ahead of Sunday's trip to Reims.
