PARIS, March 20 — Paris Saint-Germain’s march towards another Ligue 1 title was slowed yesterday as they went down 2-0 at home to Rennes, the second time Christophe Galtier’s side have lost to the Brittany club in 2023.
It is the Parisians’ fourth Ligue 1 loss this season, all of them in 2023. They lost away to Rennes when the teams last met in January. Galtier has insisted that the prospect of what would be a French record 11th top-flight title is sufficient motivation for his team, but their performance indicated otherwise.
PSG were targeting a fifth straight domestic victory but they have been severely hampered by injuries, with Neymar recovering from ankle surgery and their defence decimated. Cameroon international Toko-Ekambi, who was brought up in Paris as a PSG fan, opened the scoring in the 45th minute with an emphatic finish past goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma after latching onto a long ball forward.
