Not that PSG need any help in their procession to total domestic domination in 2015/16, however on Wednesday night the all-conquering Parisians got a helping hand from the officials during their Coupe de la Ligue quarter-final clash with Lyon.

Adrien Rabiot’s scrappy opening goal was hardly a thing of beauty. However, in the build-up to the goal, the ball clearly went over the line, by some distance.

However, even with a trusty fifth official in situ, albeit on the other side of the goal, the referee missed it and the goal ultimately stood…

This pic from the lovely folk at 101GG just shows what a howler from the officials this was…

Awful stuff! Not surprisingly, the petrochem-fuelled Parisians went on to win the game 2-1.
