K. Mbappé has scored a goal for PSG! Assist by M. Icardi.
It was quick one-two touch football by the hosts and the Montpellier defence just couldn't cope with the pace of their play, with Icardi putting it on a plate for Mbappe.
GOAL! PSG are now 4-0 up! That's three goals in just three minutes by the hosts! Mbappe, Neymar and Icardi all involved in this goal, with the trio carving open the Montpellier defence. Icardi is played through on goal and could go for goal himself, but instead he squares it to Mbappe, who has a simple tap in from a few yards out.
61'
M. Icardi has scored a goal for PSG!
GOAL! PSG are 3-0 ahead! Icardi finally has his goal. It comes from another quick counter-attack and the hosts open up Montpellier at the back and a low cross comes in from the right, which takes a big deflection and falls to the feet of the striker, who smashes it into the back of the net.
60'
Neymar has scored a goal for PSG! Assist by K. Mbappé.
Mbappe gets to the byline down the right and instead of going for goal from a tight angle, he spots Neymar and allows his teammate to score.
GOAL! Neymar doubles his side's lead, PSG are 2-0 ahead! The visitors sit deeper and deeper and Mbappe manages to sneak in behind again, he then opts to pull the ball back to Neymar instead of going for goal himself and he fires it past Bertaud and into the back of the net.

52'
T. Kehrer enters the game and replaces Marquinhos.
Another PSG substitution now, with Marquinhos the man coming off and he has been replaced by Kehrer. The skipper didn't seem to have picked up an injury, so may have just come off as a precaution.
51'
The visitors don't have anyone in attack at the moment, with everyone back defending, a five-man defence and four-man midfield, which is making it difficult for PSG to break them down.
49'
Both teams are just trying to settle into the game at the moment and neither side is able to control possession in midfield.
47'
Good chance! Florenzi does well down the right wing, getting deep into the Montpellier penalty area and he then tries to pick out Icardi in the six-yard box. However, his pass is well blocked by Bertaud and the visitors clear the danger.

The visitors have been forced into making another substitution, with Mollet unable to run off his knock, so he has been replaced by Chotard.

GOAL! Mbappe fires PSG ahead and makes it 1-0! Di Maria turns on the edge of the box and plays a quick ball through to Mbappe, who sprints through on goal and produces a lovely chip over Bertaud, to find the back of the net.
Di Maria spotted the run of Mbappe early and the Frenchman then used his speed to get away from his marker and he only had the keeper to beat, making no mistake with the finish.
24'
It will be interesting to see how Montpellier approach the game now, will they sit back and try and keep it goalless for as long as possible? Or, will they go for it and try and catch PSG out at the back?

J. Omlin goes off after a red card!
RED CARD! The referee has changed his mind after reviewing the footage and Omlin has now been shown a straight red card! The keeper doesn't have any complaints and walks straight down the tunnel. Montpellier have got a long game ahead of them now with only 10 men.
11'
Decent effort! Diallo does well to get up highest as a corner is whipped into the box, but he can't quite direct his effort on target and it flies well wide of the goal.
7'
The visitors have managed to get on the ball a little bit more now, but they can't get out of their own half as PSG are pressing them so quickly.
4'
Almost! Di Maria picks up the ball deep down the right wing, cuts inside and then tries to find Icardi in behind the visitors defence. However, the defender reads it well and makes the clearance.
3'
As you might have expected, it is the hosts who are dominating possession in the opening few minutes, keeping it well in midfield. However, Montpellier are sitting deep and making it difficult for the likes of Mbappe and Icardi to sprint in behind.

We're under way!
Hello and welcome to our LIVE match commentary of the Ligue 1 clash between Paris Saint-Germain and Montpellier at Parc des Princes.
PSG could go three points clear at the top of Ligue 1 with a victory today as they are currently level on points with Lille, who play later this weekend. Mauricio Pochettino’s side have won their last three games, which includes a 2-1 victory over Marseille in the Trophee des Champions final.
MONTPELLIER (5-3-2): Jonas Omlin; Arnaud Souquet, Pedro Mendes, Hilton, Daniel Congre, Mihailo Ristic; Florent Mollet, Teji Savanier, Damien Le Tallec; Junior Sambia, Gaetan Laborde.
The teams are out on the pitch and kick-off is just a few minutes away, stay tuned for all the match action!
Meanwhile Montpellier are winless in their last six games, losing four and drawing two which has seen them drop to 11th in the table. Last time out they suffered a 3-2 defeat against Monaco, despite being 3-0 down at one point, but they were unable to complete the comeback.
Following the sending off, Montpellier sat back a lot more and had to withstand a lot of PSG pressure. However, they did almost equalise through Mendes at the end of the half, so they could catch the hosts out at the back and will be more confident of this the longer the score stays 1-0.
That's all from us today folks, we hope you enjoyed the game!
Next up for PSG is a trip to Lorient, whilst Montpellier remain 11th and they will welcome Lens next time out.
