PARIS (AP) — Marseille restored its one-point lead over Paris Saint-Germain at the top of the French league after coming from a goal down to beat Bordeaux 3-1 on Sunday.

Bordeaux forward Thomas Toure opened the scoring with a low strike in the 55th minute but Marseille midfielder Mario Lemina leveled with a header in the 60th.

France international Andre-Pierre Gignac gave Marseille the lead by heading home a corner from Dimitri Payet in the 85th before substitute Michy Batshuayi put the result beyond doubt, pouncing on a rebound in the 89th.

Montpellier moved into ninth place in the league by defeating Toulouse 2-0 and Nantes extended its unbeaten run to 10 games in all competitions by drawing 0-0 with Saint-Etienne to climb to fourth
