Bradley Barcola's brilliance combined with Gianluigi Donnarumma's decisive saves have helped Paris Saint-Germain win at Lens 2-1 in Ligue 1. The win extends PSG's lead in the standings to 10 points on Saturday. But it did little to mask the defensive frailties of Luis Enrique's team ahead of a crucial Champions League match against Manchester City next week. PSG has conceded four times in its last three matches. With two matches left in the league phase of the Champions League, PSG sits in 25th place, meaning it could miss out on the knockout stage.
