PSG suffered a costly loss and now trails Nice by one point and Monaco, the league leader, by two points. Monaco plays at Lorient on Sunday.
With two goals and an assist, Terem Moffi outperformed Kylian Mbappé as Nice defeated Paris Saint-Germain 3-2 on Friday in the French league, handing the defending champion its first loss under new coach Luis Enrique.
Even though Mbappe also scored twice, PSG's debut Champions League match against Borussia Dortmund on Tuesday was a concerning one for home supporters.
The Nigeria striker's precise finishing once again highlighted PSG's remaining defensive weaknesses. Nice's superb counterattacking was perfectly suited to Moffi's speed and wide runs off the ball.

With a strong run down the left and a precise cross to striker Gaetan Laborde at the far post, Moffi created Nice's other goal.
In the 21st minute, Moffi gave Nice the lead by taking advantage of a bustle in the area to snipe a shot inside the near post past keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma. Eight minutes later, Mbappé equalised as he fired a 20-meter shot past former PSG goalkeeper Marcin Buka.
Moffi, however, went on to set up Laborde for a sliding finish in the 53rd and then scored the game-winning goal in the 68th.
He adeptly flicked the ball to Laborde down the right before receiving the return pass and moving across the area to shoot low past Donnarumma into the bottom left corner while maintaining control of the ball in midfield with his back to goal.
