Eric Maxim Choupo-Moting was guilty of an extraordinary miss as Paris St Germain missed the chance to wrap up the Ligue 1 title after a 2-2 draw with Strasbourg.

A 55th-minute goal from Issiaga Sylla gave Toulouse a 1-0 win over Nantes, who were forced to play with 10 men for most of the match after Andrei Girotto’s 17th-minute sending-off.
