PSG held to surprise 1-1 draw at Parc des Princes by Nantes

Paris Saint-Germain were held to a rare 1-1 home draw against underdogs Nantes in a Ligue 1 clash on Saturday when an early goal from Achraf Hakimi was cancelled out by Matthis Abline.

The match had barely started when Gonçalo Ramos flicked a cross into the box to Hakimi, who easily slotted the ball into the net, giving PSG a flying start after just two minutes.

However, underdog Nantes refused to give up against the league leaders, equalising seven minutes before the break with a goal from Abline.

PSG pressed hard for a late winner, driving Nantes into a resolute defensive stance, but the visitors held firm, weathering the storm.

The reigning Ligue 1 champions are still alone at the top with 33 points, seven points ahead of AS Monaco who play Marseille on Sunday, while Nantes are in 16th, the relegation play-off spot, with 11 points.
