Neymar leads PSG to ‘Classique’ win over Marseille

PARIS (AP) — Neymar scored his ninth goal in the French league this season to guide Paris Saint-Germain to a 1-0 win over bitter rival Marseille in French soccer’s biggest game. PSG posted its ninth win in 11 league games to move three points clear of Lorient at the top of the standings. Marseille slumped to a second straight loss and dropped to fourth place. Neymar broke the deadlock in first-half stoppage time at the conclusion of a counterattack. Laurent Blanc could not turn Lyon’s fortunes around in his first match in charge. Lyon lost 3-2 at Rennes to extend its current winless run to six matches.
