PSG Reigns Terror In A 5-0 Win Against Angers

Mauro Icardi again scored in the final seconds at Parc des Princes, this time completing a hat trick as titleholders Paris Saint-Germain routed Angers 5-0 on Wednesday to reach the French Cup semifinals.

Monaco joined PSG in the last four by winning 2-0 at Lyon, as both maintained a chance to secure a domestic double.

Icardi held off a defender to volley home a high ball dropping into the penalty area, days after heading home in the last seconds of injury time to give PSG a 3-2 home win against Saint-Etienne in the league on Sunday.

It took his tally to 11 goals in 21 games this season and 31 in 55 since joining PSG two years ago from Serie A club Inter Milan, where he scored 124 in 219 to earn a reputation as one of the best finishers in Europe.

Neymar forced an own goal from defender Vincent Manceau to make it 2-0 midway through a first half where the visitors had several chances.

After setting up Icardi’s first goal in the ninth minute, attacking midfielder Julian Draxler flicked over a pass from the left for Neymar to head home in the 65th minute.

Three minutes later, a great piece of skill from Angel Di Maria with a Rabona down the right gave Icardi a close-range goal.
