PSG increase the hurt for Zagreb

French table-toppers Paris Saint-
Germain extended Dinamo Zagreb's
miserable European run with a
comfortable 2-0 win in Champions
League Group A in Croatia.
Goals from Zlatan Ibrahimovic and
Jeremy Menez kept Carlo Ancelotti's
side within reach of section leaders
Porto and consigned Dinamo to a
ninth consecutive Champions League
group stage defeat.
The home side's vulnerability in
defence was clearly evident as Menez
escaped down the left, getting behind
Ante Puljic before cutting the ball back
to Ibrahimovic who coolly slotted
beyond Ivan Kelava.
Javier Pastore then slipped the ball to
the France international who again ran
at Puljic before drilling low through the
legs of Kelava two mintues before half-
time.
Thiago Silva saw his downward header
from a Pastore corner deflected onto
the bar by Marcelo Brozovic, while
Guillaume Hoarau had a late strike
ruled out for a foul on Sime Vrsaljko,
but it had little bearing on the final
result.
