ZLATAN IBRAHIMOVIC’S SUPERB second-half effort gave PSG a 1-0 win over Lorient to send Laurent Blanc’s men into the final of the Coupe de France.
The holders had struggled to break down a resilient Lorient outfit but the prolific striker came to his side’s rescue after 75 minutes with another fine goal.
Ibrahimovic was given space on the edge of the box and his shot, with the outside of his boot, was too clever for Lorient goalkeeper Benjamin Lecomte to keep out.
The hosts had chances of their own, with Salvatore Sirigu denying both Abdul Majeed Waris and Benjamin Moukandjo, but PSG held on for their eighth straight victory over Lorient.
PSG’s hopes of a historic successive domestic treble are still alive as they extended a club record of 11 successive Coupe de France victories ahead of Saturday’s Coupe de la Ligue final against Lille.
