Zlatan Ibrahimovic scored his 26th goal in 27 appearances for club and country as Paris St-Germain won at Rennes to cement their place at the top.

Thiago Motta put the visitors ahead before Sweden striker Ibrahimovic made it 2-0 from the penalty spot.

Romain Alessandrini pulled a goal back for the hosts but Edinson Cavani sealed the points in the last minute.

The win sent Laurent Blanc's side five points clear at the top in France after a fifth win in six league games.

But Monaco's 2-0 win at Guingamp later on Saturday reduced PSG's lead at the top of the table to two points.

Mid-table Rennes have won just one of the last seven games.
