Result: Paris Saint-Germain score five in Toulouse rout, Ibrahimovic records brace

Paris Saint-Germain score five times in a rout of Toulouse, as Laurent Blanc's side go 13 points clear in Ligue 1 having played a fixture more than their nearest rivals.

Paris Saint-Germain have extended their lead of the top of Ligue 1 with a five-goal rout of Toulouse.

Angel di Maria opened the scoring for Laurent Blanc's side after six minutes, as his 35-yard free kick evaded both teammate Thiago Motta and Toulouse keeper Ali Ahamada to give PSG the lead.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic found Gregory van der Wiel with a cross moments later but the full-back sent his shot just over the crossbar.

The Sweden striker doubled the Parisiens' lead in the 18th minute with another fortuitous goal.

Di Maria's whipped cross found Ibrahimovic in the box which the striker attempted to nod down for the onrushing Van der Wiel, though a deflection on the header sent it into the Toulouse net.

The second half saw the introduction of Lucas Moura for Edinson Cavani, with the Brazilian making an instant impact on the game.

Lucas picked up the ball in the centre of the half with 65 minutes played, dribbling past several defenders before laying it off to Ibrahimovic.

The Swede found Van der Wiel, who crossed into the box for Lucas to nod home, giving PSG a three-goal advantage.

Ibrahimovic recorded his brace in the 75th minute, slotting home after Ahamada had parried a strike from Lucas, who once again sliced through the middle of Toulouse's defence.

Another substitute, in the form Ezequiel Lavezzi, got his name on the scoresheet three minutes later as he converted from Ibrahimovic's chipped pass which Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik failed to cut out.

PSG's victory puts them 13 points clear at the summit of Ligue 1, having played one game more than their three closest rivals.
