Ibra wonder goal steers PSG

AFP, PARIS: Paris Saint-Germain go into the winter break with a Ligue 1 record points haul of 51 after a 3-0 away win at Caen lit up by a thrilling Zlatan Ibrahimovic strike on Saturday.
Already 1-0 up from an early Angel di Maria goal Ibrahimovic produced a stunning 25-yard snap-shot which flew into the top corner of the Caen goal on 36 minutes.
As the stadium rose to acclaim the giant Swede for the simple power and precision of his split-second effort, even the beaten ‘keeper was left smiling.
The win lifted PSG to a massive 19 points clear of Monaco, held to a goalless draw at Troyes.
It also extends the star-studded Qatar-backed club’s unbeaten record in the league to 28 games since March.
Summer-signing Di Maria rounded off the scoring with his sixth Ligue 1 goal since joining from Manchester United, making it 3-0 as he rounded off a slick team effort on 50 minutes.
Monaco’s Lacina Traore had a chance to grab the three points from the bottom-club but missed a penalty.
Rennes took the honours in the Brittany derby, beating Guingamp 2-0 for only their second win in their last 14 league games.
