PARIS (AP) — Bordeaux held Paris Saint-Germain to a 2-2 draw on Sunday to finally end the runaway leader's streak of 14 straight wins in the French league.
PSG now leads second-placed Montpellier by 14 points.
PSG twice took the lead, through star forwards Neymar and Kylian Mbappe. But substitute Andreas Cornelius leveled for the hosts with a fine glancing header from a cross in the 84th minute.
Neymar gave PSG the lead in the 34th with a neat volley from inside the penalty area, but went off around 10 minutes into the second half and headed straight to the dressing room. It was not immediately clear if he had picked up an injury. Neymar exited with an apparent groin injury during Brazil's friendly match against Cameroon on Nov. 20.
Neymar's 11th league goal of the season went to a video review before being awarded. It seemed harsh on Bordeaux, considering Mbappe appeared marginally offside and to be slightly obscuring the view of goalkeeper Benoit Costil when the ball went in.
After veteran forward Jimmy Briand equalized with a well-worked goal in the 54th, Mbappe sprinted through to collect Julian Draxler's pass and slot home the second in the 66th.
PSG could have scored more with winger Angel Di Maria hitting the post and the crossbar. But slack defending allowed Cornelius enough space to salvage a point for 11th-place Bordeaux.
MARSEILLE SLIPS
Following a crushing defeat in the Europa League, Marseille slipped up again when it drew 0-0 at home to Reims.
Marseille lost 4-0 at Eintracht Frankfurt on Thursday to go bottom of its Europa League group, having reached the final of the competition last season.
Confidence seemed to be affected as Marseille labored against Reims and top scorer Florian Thauvin was kept quiet. Playmaker Dimitri Payet had a free kick well saved as Marseille dropped points in its quest to qualify for next season's Champions League.
The draw leaves Marseille in fifth place, one point behind fourth-place Lille, while Reims is ninth.
