Ligue 1 round-up: PSG miss chance to clinch title after draw with Strasbourg
Monday 8 April 2019 11:45, UK
Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting was guilty of an extraordinary miss as Paris Saint-Germain missed the chance to wrap up the Ligue 1 title after a 2-2 draw with Strasbourg.
Choupo-Moting needlessly deflected a goal-bound shot from team-mate Christopher Nkunku onto the post from point-blank range to prevent his side going 2-1 in front in the first half.
The Cameroon striker had given PSG a 13th-minute lead but Strasbourg equaliser through Nuno Da Costa and Anthony Goncalves gave the visitors the advantage before the break.
PSG looked to be heading for only the second loss of their league campaign until substitute Thilo Kehrer equalised eight minutes from time.
PSG had been given the chance to clinch the title after second-placed Lille were held to a 1-1 draw at Reims in an earlier kick-off.
