Neymar was sent off late on as a limping Jonathan David scored the only goal to give Lille a 1-0 win over Paris Saint-Germain in their Ligue 1 title showdown on Saturday, a result that moves them three points clear at the top.

Canadian striker David was struggling with an ankle injury when he fired home in the 20th minute. He was forced off soon after and emerged on crutches to watch the second half with heavy strapping.
