Substitute Goncalo Ramos scored a stunning 94th-minute header to give Paris Saint-Germain a dramatic 1-0 victory over Nice in Ligue 1 on Saturday, extending their lead at the top of the table to four points.
The Portuguese forward, who replaced Senny Mayulu in the 72nd minute, powered home a close-range effort from a Lee Kang-in corner deflected on by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia. The goal ended PSG’s frustrating night of missed chances and sealed Ramos’ 100th appearance for the club in memorable fashion.
Earlier, Ramos had tested Nice goalkeeper Yehvann Diouf with a sharp effort, but it was his stoppage-time strike that broke the deadlock and sent the Parc des Princes into celebration. The forward marked his goal with an exuberant karate kick on the corner flag as fans erupted in joy.

The victory sees Luis Enrique’s men stretch their lead to four points at the top of Ligue 1, with second-placed Monaco suffering a 1-0 home defeat to Paris FC. Marseille, however, could narrow the gap if they beat Auxerre later in the day.
PSG will now turn their attention to the Champions League, where they host Bayern Munich on Tuesday in a highly anticipated fixture.
Meanwhile, Monaco’s defeat was sealed by Nigerian winger Moses Simon, who struck in the 53rd minute to end the team’s unbeaten home run under new coach Sebastien Pocognoli.
