Half-Time Report: All square between Nice, Paris Saint-Germain

It is 1-1 at the break of the Ligue 1 clash between Nice and Paris Saint-Germain.

The home side were the first to threaten as Eduardo raided forward from midfield to release the run of Alassane Plea, but his strike at goal was well blocked by David Luiz.

Nice pushed forward again and came within inches of taking the lead when Gregoire Puel's cross was deflected into the path of Said Benrahma, but the midfielder's strike curled just past the post.

The visitors were struggling to impose themselves on the contest and were unable to muster any chances due to the battling qualities of the Nice defence.

However, PSG came to life when Lucas released the run of Javier Pastore, and the forward maintained his composure to fire a low effort into the bottom corner and hand his side the lead.

The home side rallied on the stroke of half time when Benrahama tried a speculative effort from distance, which hit Mathieu Bodmer in the box. The visitors appealed for offside, but the striker was played on by Luiz and was able to beat Salvatore Sirigu to level the scores.
