Cavani bags hat-trick as perfect PSG leave Henry’s Monaco down and out

However, Diaby squared for Cavani to complete his hat-trick in the 54th minute, and Neymar then rolled in a penalty after Kylian Mbappe had been fouled by France teammate Djibril Sidibe.

“I am very satisfied with the result, and with the fact we showed the hunger to win a 13th straight game. That is extraordinary,” said Tuchel.

“Monaco and Henry are in a very difficult situation with lots of players out injured. This wasn’t the night for Monaco to challenge us. They can do that if they have all their players back but not today.”

Elsewhere on Sunday, Lucas Ocampos and Adil Rami scored as Marseille bounced back from a run of four straight defeats to beat Dijon 2-0 on an emotional afternoon at the Velodrome.

A minute’s silence was held before kick-off in memory of the eight people killed when two buildings collapsed in the southern French city on Monday.

The result lifted Marseille up to sixth, back to within three points of third-placed Montpellier, who beat them 3-0 last weekend.

Bordeaux were held to a goalless draw by Caen, while Rennes drew 1-1 with local rivals Nantes.
