PARIS, March 17 -- Angel Di Maria undoubtedly became man of the match in Paris Saint-Germain's 3-1 win over 10-man Marseille in Le Classique at the Parc des Princes to extend their advantage atop Ligue 1 standings on Sunday.
The Argentinian winger was directly involved in all of PSG's goals, scoring two and dishing out one assist. Kylian Mbappe also improved his tally of league goals to 26.
Having played one game less, PSG establish a 20-point cushion over second-placed Lille, who conceded a 1-0 home defeat to Monaco on Friday.
Di Maria had a goal disallowed around the quarter hour mark. A powerful shot from his teammate Thomas Meunier was blocked by goalkeeper Steve Mandanda ten minutes later.
PSG had to make consecutive substitutions earlier than expected as Dani Alves and Meunier were both forced off due to injuries, but they managed to break the deadlock through a counter-attack just before the break, as Di Maria teed up Mbappe's cool finish at the far corner of the goal.
Marseille made their response one minute after the restart. Valere Germain latched onto Lucas Ocampos' left-flank cross for an equalizer.
Di Maria put the runaway leaders in front again by playing a one-two with Thilo Kehrer and curling a finish at target in the 55th minute.
Further misery was inflicted on the visitors seven minutes later, when Mandanda was given a marching order for blocking the ball with his arm as he raced out of the box to restrain Di Maria.
