Goals from Neymar and Kylian Mbappe helped Ligue 1 champions Paris Saint-Germain come from behind to secure victory over Guingamp on Saturday evening.
Kylian Mbappe returned to the squad but was only named on the bench as Neymar led the attack with Christopher Nkunku and Timothy Weah.
The visitors dominated in the early stages as Angel Di Maria shaved the woodwork in the opening 10 minutes.
The hosts then took a surprising lead on 20 minutes when Nolan Roux slotted home from close range, much to the delight of the home supporters.
PSG threw numbers forward as they went in search of an equaliser but they were unable to carve out another opening for the remainder of the first half.
The equaliser eventually arrived on 53 minutes through Neymar's second-half penalty after the Brazilian was brought down in the box.
Neymar was proving to be PSG's biggest threat on the night and he went close to handing his side lead in the 63rd minute when he blazed over the crossbar from close range.
Mbappe, who was introduced at halftime, put the Ligue 1 champions ahead on 82 minutes with a clinical finish.
PSG managed to carve out a couple more chances in the closing stages, and they got a third in the 90th minute as Mbappe completed his brace with a clinical finish.
