Substitute Beric denies PSG chance to top Ligue 1 table

Paris, Sep 10 (IANS) Substitute Robert Beric scored an injury-time equaliser to help Saint-Etienne tie 1-1 in the Ligue 1 with Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) who were playing their 1,000th football match at the Parc des Princes.

Lucas Moura broke the deadlock for Les Parisiens on Friday in the 67th minute by converting the penalty with a right footed shot to the bottom left corner after Kevin Malcuit fouled Blaise Matuidi inside the area, reports Xinhua.

Beric, however, struck to the top right right corner two minutes into the stoppage after a cross from Malcuit setting up the Slovenian forward.

With the 1-1 draw at home, the French champions were denied a return to the top of Ligue 1.
