Lorient 1-4 Paris Saint-Germain LIVE: Ligue 1 result as Kylian Mbappe brace wraps up convincing win for league leaders

Braces from Kylian Mbappe and Ousmane Dembele saw Paris Saint-Germain ease past Lorient with a 4-1 away win to move a step closer to claiming their record-extending 12th Ligue 1 title.

Lorient spurned a golden chance through Aymen Kari in the opening stages and were made to pay when Dembele's composed finish put the visitors ahead after 19 minutes.

Mbappe's superb flicked finish saw Luis Enrique's side double their lead just three minutes later, while Gianluigi Donnarumma had to be alert at the other end to deny Tiemoue Bakayoko's header from a corner later in the first half.

PSG added a third as Mbappe turned provider after the break, jinking past Nathaniel Adjei with a cute bit of skill before setting up Dembele to slam home his second.

Mohammed Bamba's powerful header aroused faint hopes of a dramatic Lorient comeback but the visitors saw the game out resolutely, with Mbappe finding his second in the 90th minute with a fine curling effort past Yvon Mvogo.

A second late on for Mbappe with a delightful curling effort past Mvogo. Here it is:

The referee blows his whistle as PSG wrap up a comprehensive 4-1 victory over Lorient.

A brace for both Dembele and Mbappe moves Luis Enrique's side 14 points clear at the top of the table and, should Monaco fail to beat Lille later on tonight, the Parisian side will be confirmed as Ligue 1 champions yet again.

Into the fourth of five second-half added minutes but PSG - and Mbappe in particular - are hungry for more. Ruiz tries to find Kolo Muani inside the box with a toe poke but the ball runs through to Mvogo.

PSG have their fourth and it's that man again. Kolo Muani feeds Mbappe down the left side and it's a trademark finish from the forward, cutting inside onto his right foot before curling the ball past Mvogo and into the far corner.

An assist and two goals for PSG's talisman and that will put the result beyond doubt.

Having scored the second, Kylian Mbappe again showed his class with a remarkable bit of skill to set up Dembele for his second of the game. Here it is:

Toure does well to win his side a corner but Mendy's outswinging delivery is cleared away at the near post by Soler before Bouanani blazes over from the edge of the box.

Lorient enjoyed a good five-minute spell after that Bamba goal but PSG have just slowed things down as they look to hold on to this two-goal advantage in the closing stages.

Straight off the bench and into the action for Katseris as he meets Mendy's cross at the far post. It's a well-struck effort but Donnarumma denies it well with his feet.

Lorient playing their best football of the game so far after that Bamba goal.

Katseris comes on for Kalulu in the closing stages.

PSG just need to be careful to not get dragged into anything dramatic in these closing stages. Bamba has a good effort blocked but Lorient keep coming forward.

Ponceau goes down in the box under the challenge of Soler but the referee waves away the appeals.

There will be no clean sheet for PSG as Lorient pull one back. Mendy is given too much time out on the left and whips in an enticing delivery into the box.

Bamba meets it well and thunders his header past Donnarumma to give the hosts a slither of hope in these closing stages.

Mendes makes way and there will be two Mbappes on the pitch as Ethan, Kylian's younger brother, comes on for the final 20 minutes.

It's a fierce strike from a tight angle and Mvogo does well to react in time and tip the ball over the bar for a corner.

But it's a poor, heavy touch from the substitute that allows the Lorient defence to recover and smother his eventual effort.

The home side turn to their bench again as Bamba and Abergel replace Kroupi and Louza.

Laporte throws himself in front of Ruiz's effort to deflect it behind for a corner.

Mukiele comes on for Hernandez in defence.

Lorient's first yellow card is shown to Bakayoko after a late challenge in the middle of the park.

Lorient make a double change after that goal as Mendy and Bouanani come on for Yongwa and Kari.

The visitors, too, make changes as Kang-In, Mayulu and Ramos are replaced by Ugarte, Soler and Kolo Muani.
