This victory brings PSG to 14 points, surpassing Monaco, which has 13 points and faces Lorient on Sunday. Strasbourg, on the other hand, dropped to 7 points in 12th place following its third consecutive loss. 

The win comes ahead of PSG's highly anticipated Champions League clash with Barcelona in three days, following its recent 4-2 win over Manchester City in the competition. 

PSG's performance was a significant boost ahead of the crucial match, Qatar News Agency (QNA) said in a statement.
