Summary: Chateauroux - Paris Saint-Germain 3:1 (Sport1)
After the painful loss against Lance in the battle at the top of the French league, Paris Saint-Germain played tonight (Friday) in the French Cup and barely beat the weak Chateauroux 1:3.
The French champions are missing their three stars - Leo Messi who just arrived in Paris after the euphoria of the World Cup, Kylian Mbappe who is in New York with Ashraf Hakimi and Neymar.
Hugo Akitika took advantage of the credit he received in the lineup and scored the first in the 13th minute.
But the hosts did not give up and Tio Netula equalized (37) from a cook by veteran Nolan Rowe.
This tie lasted until the 79th minute when Carlos Soler bombed from close range from a rebound after the goalkeeper's tip and in added time Juan Bernat secured the victory with a kick from the left side of the box.

Paris will now rest for five days, with the three biggest stars expected to return and perhaps also start together for the first time since the World Cup in the away game against Ange from the bottom.
Chateauroux will return to its bottom struggles in the third division in France.
