PSG keeps perfect start to French league after Mbappe's departure

Paris Saint-Germain is enjoying a perfect start to the season despite the summer departure of star striker Kylian Mbappe for Real Madrid, after securing another victory -- 3-1 at Lille -- in the French league on Sunday.

PSG leads the standings with nine points from three games, having now scored 13 goals. PSG opened its campaign with a 4-1 away win at Le Havre, followed by a 6-0 demolition of Montpellier.

Vitinha put the visitors ahead from the penalty spot in the 33rd minute and Bradley Barcola quickly doubled the lead for the defending champion. Edon Zhegrova got one back for Lille in the 78th before Randal Kolo Muani sealed the win in second-half stoppage time.

Also Sunday, Monaco and Lens drew 1-1 in a game with two late goals. Denis Zakaria headed the hosts ahead in the 84th before Lens grabbed a point with a penalty converted by Przemyslaw Frankowski in second-half stoppage time.

Nice routed Angers 4-1, Le Havre beat Auxerre 3-1 and Reims edged Rennes 2-1.

On Saturday, Mason Greenwood scored twice in one minute to launch Marseille to a 3-1 win over Toulouse. The former Manchester United forward has five goals from the first three Ligue 1 matches, matching the record of Mario Balotelli in 2016 with Nice.
