Brazilian star Neymar notched his 10th goal of the season but a lethargic Paris Saint-Germain needed a second-half Gianluigi Donnarumma penalty save to secure a 1-0 win over Brest in Ligue 1 on Saturday.
The result takes PSG back to the top of the table and maintains their unbeaten start to the campaign under new coach Christophe Galtier, reports BSS.
PSG are two points clear of Lens, who won 1-0 against Troyes on Friday, but Marseille can move level with the champions if they win at home to Lille.
Despite the result, this was PSG's least convincing performance of the season so far, coming against a Brest side that just two weeks ago lost 7-0 at home to Montpellier.
Galtier may reflect that he should have made more changes to his starting line-up, with this match falling in between their 2-1 midweek Champions League win over Juventus and a long trip to Israel to play Maccabi Haifa this Wednesday.
