Paris Saint-Germain comfortably beat Lille to extend their unbeaten run to 22 games, with Ligue 1 top scorer Ousmane Dembele scoring one of the four goals in the first half. The match saw PSG lead from the start, with Bradley Barcola scoring from the rebound after Dembele's shot was saved. Marquinhos headed in Desire Doue's corner for his first PSG goal since December 2022, and Dembele swept in their third to cap off a slick passing move. Doue blasted a shot into the top corner from Dembele's pass to make it 4-0 after 37 minutes.

The champions eased up after that, with Jonathan David pulling one back late on after Gianluigi Donnarumma parried a shot from former PSG player Ethan Mbappe. PSG, who have won their past 10 games, host Premier League leaders Liverpool in their Champions League last-16 first leg tie on 5 March. The team's manager, Luis Enrique, has opted for a 4-3-3 formation, which has proven to be effective in their recent matches. Lille's manager, Bruno Génésio, on the other hand, has chosen a 4-2-3-1 formation, but it was not enough to stop PSG's dominant performance.

PSG's win over Lille has given them a 16-point lead over second-placed Marseille, and they are now 10 league games away from achieving their first unbeaten Ligue 1 campaign. The team's Champions League tie against Liverpool is highly anticipated, and PSG's recent performance has shown that they are a force to be reckoned with. Lille's Bafodé Diakité has warned Liverpool about PSG's collective effort, saying that they have noticed a difference in the team's playing style over the past two years.

The match between PSG and Lille saw the following scores:

  • PSG: 4 goals (Bradley Barcola, Marquinhos, Ousmane Dembele, Desire Doue)
  • Lille: 1 goal (Jonathan David)
The win has boosted PSG's confidence ahead of their Champions League tie, and they will be looking to continue their unbeaten run against Liverpool.

PSG's player statistics are impressive, with Dembele scoring 20 goals in his past 14 games. The team's formation and playing style have been effective in their recent matches, and they will be looking to use this to their advantage against Liverpool. The Champions League tie is expected to be a thrilling match, with both teams looking to advance to the next round. With their current form and team spirit, PSG is a strong contender for the Champions League title.

In a higher phase of communist society, after the enslaving subordination of the individual to the division of labor, and therewith also the antithesis between mental and physical labor, has vanished; after labor has become not only a means of life but life's prime want; after the productive forces have also increased with the all-around development of the individual, and all the springs of co-operative wealth flow more abundantly—only then can the narrow horizon of bourgeois right be crossed in its entirety and society inscribe on its banners: From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs! - By Karl Marx, Critique of the Gotha Program
