Sinayoko’s goal gives visitors the head … but Nuno Mendes hits the post with a spectacular free kick
Midtable Auxerre took a first half advance in first half at the Paris Saint-Germain champions in the last round of Ligue 1 matches this season before Nuno Mendes curls up a sublime free kick against the woodwork while the finalists of the Champions League threatened a rapid equalizer.
The top scorer of PSG, Ousmane Dembele, was refused by goalkeeper Donovan Leon in the lead start before Gaetan Perrin slips Lassine Sinayoko to the goal with a weak pass by the center to mark the opening of the 30th minute.
The Mali Sinayoko striker turned at high speed and produced a clinical finish on the left foot, rolling the ball under Gianluigi Donnarumma just inside the box to put auxerre on the field for a third victory in four games outside.
Nuno Mendes almost responded to sublime fashion shortly after, folding a good effort on a left foot against the nearby post at a considerable distance on the left at the Parc des Princes, where PSG suffered their first defeat of the season of the season in its last home game on April 25.

PSG vs Auxerre
The title obtained on April 19, the national form of PSG may have been predictable because their objective intensified on a first title of the Champions League.
Their league race without three-game victory after sealing first place included this defeat against Nice and a 2-1 defeat in Strasbourg to the hopes of the Champions League qualification.
The Luis Enrique team recovered to win 4-1 in Montpellier on May 10, three days after their home victory 2-1 against Arsenal to fill a global 3-1 victory in the semi-final of the Champions League.
Auxerre scored with their only shot on the target of the first half, while PSG had two specific attempts and finished the period on a total of goals expected of 0.69 for 0.39 of their opponents.
The Ajaists, who won Ligue 2 last season, is guaranteed to finish 10th if they beat a PSG side against which they pulled 0-0 at home on December 6.
