Draxler with a goal and an assist in PSG victory

Julian Draxler scored his second goal of the season in French Cup winners Paris St. Germain’s dominant 5-0 victory over Angers SCO. The World Cup Winner chipped the ball spectacularly over goalkeeper Mathieu Michel after an assist from Dani Alves to score PSG’s second goal of the match. The 24-year-old also set up Edinson Cavani for the fourth goal with a beautiful through ball. The Ligue 1 table-toppers secured their tenth win in twelve league games.

Kylian Mbappe (5’, 85’) and Cavani (30’, 60’) scored the other four goals for PSG. The Parisian side’s lead over second-placed AS Monaco stretched to seven points, but the current champions have the chance to reduce that lead in the Saturday evening match against EA Guingamp.

Liverpool win with Can

With Germany international Emre Can in the starting XI, Liverpool beat West Ham 4-1 in the Premier League to celebrate their third dominant victory of the week, after the 3-0 league win over Huddersfield Town and the 3-0 Champions League victory against NK Maribor. Mohamed Salah (21’, 75’), former Schalke player Joel Matip (24’) and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain (56’) were on the scoresheet for the Reds, whilst Manuel Lanzini scored the hosts’ only goal (55’).

Sunday will see two blockbuster clashes as Manchester City face Arsenal and defending champions Chelsea host Manchester United.
