Ligue 1 round-up: PSG suffer their first loss since March, Monaco climb top of the table, Lyon stumble and Bordeaux find form
The Ligue 1 champions had an early chance to open up a gap at the summit as Guingamp top table
PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN suffered their first league defeat since March at Monaco, as they had not conceded three goals in more than two years.
Indeed, Paris last conceded three goals in the league in March 2015 when Bordeaux beat them 3-2 at home, and last weekend's 3-1 defeat at Monaco is just a warning that this season's title could be closer.
Joao Moutinho put the Monegasques in the lead and Fabinho doubled before half-time, while Edinson Cavani headed his first goal of the season and Serge Aurier killed with an own goal.
Bordeaux got their second win by defeating Nantes 1-0 with a Diego Rolan first-half goal and are unbeaten so far, although suffering a shambolic 4-1 defeat at Toulouse a week ago with keys players injured at that time.
Toulouse took last season's relegation battle as a serious lesson to bounce back positively this season. They maintained their unbeaten start to the campaign with a 0-0 draw at Saint-Etienne.
Marseilles got their first win of this campaign by beating Lorient 2-0 at the Stade Velodrome on Friday night.
Remy Cabella fired with a brilliant first-half free-kick and Bafetimbi Gomis added a second in the 70th minute.
Title rivals Lyon suffered a surprise 4-2 defeat at newly promoted Dijon, as Alexandre Lacazette came off with a knee injury.
Nabil Fekir is due to undergo minor knee surgery and will be sidelined for three weeks.
Summer signing Nicolas N'Koulou conceded a penalty from which Frederic Sammaritano equalised but Lacazette scored his sixth goal in three games to restore Lyon's lead.
Julio Tavares made it 2-2 before Dylan Bahamboula and Pierre Lees Melou won the points for the home side.
Guingamp who won 2-0 at Nancy to move alongside Monaco and Nice on seven points - the shock leaders ahead on goal difference.
Caen beat Bastia 2-0 on the same day, while Metz held on to Angers by the same scoreline with defenders Simon Falette and Guido Milan each heading home from a set piece.
Rennes came from behind to earn a 1-1 draw with Montpellier, Adama Diakhaby cancelling out Daniel Congre's opener.
