Paris, Nov 7 (AP) Neymar scored twice as runaway league leader Paris Saint-Germain held on to win 3-2 at struggling Bordeaux after conceding late goals.

After Kylian Mbappe made it 3-0 after 63 minutes, Bordeaux fought back to threaten a draw. Honduras striker Alberth Elis pounced in the 77th and a slick goal from striker M'Baye Niang, after swapping passes twice with veteran forward Jimmy Briand, made it 3-2 entering injury time.

Although Bordeaux ran out of time, PSG's complacency and defensive lapses were again exposed — just like in midweek when it conceded a late equalizing penalty to Leipzig in the Champions League.

The Brazil star Neymar put PSG ahead when he turned in Mbappe's cross from the right in the 26th minute and finished from Mbappe's back-heel pass just before the break.
