Ajaccio 1-2 Paris St-Germain

Defending champions Paris St-Germain moved five points clear of Monaco at the top of the French league after coming from behind for a hard-fought win at bottom side Ajaccio.

Argentina winger Ezequiel Lavezzi and France midfielder Blaise Matuidi scored, with striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic setting up both.

Forward Eduardo Ribeiro dos Santos gave Ajaccio the lead in the sixth minute.

Lille will move into second place above Monaco if they beat Reims on Sunday.

Former Guingamp and Lens striker Eduardo opened the scoring after being set up by right winger Benjamin Andre, and the Corsican side looked comfortable for most of the first half, with the lively Johan Cavalli causing problems with his probing runs from midfield.

But Lavezzi levelled from close range from Ibrahimovic's right-wing cross with four minutes of the half remaining.

Ajaccio almost regained the lead when Cavalli's fine pass released Eduardo, and his shot from the right side of the penalty area forced goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu into a low save.

But the league leaders secured the win when Ibrahimovic rose at the back post to head the ball down and Matuidi sprinted in to turn the ball past keeper Guillermo Ochoa.
