LIGUE 1 leader Paris St. Germain blew a two-goal lead when it was beaten 2-3 at Dijon in the last 16 of the French League Cup on Wednesday while play was halted as fans threw flares in a heated St. Etienne vs Lyon derby.
Montpellier, second in the Ligue 1 standings, was also knocked out following a 1-2 home defeat to Lorient thanks to Costa Rica striker Joel Campbell, who struck in the 68th after Olivier Giroud had cancelled out Innocent Emeghara's first-half opener for the visitors.
French champion Lille made light work of Ligue 2 side Sedan, goals by Benoit Pedretti, Joe Cole and Ireneusz Jelen giving it a 3-1 home victory.
The St. Etienne vs Olympique Lyon game ended in a 2-1 win for the visitors at their archrival, but the game was halted for five minutes after fans threw flares onto the pitch when a penalty was awarded to Lyon.
Referee Clement Turpin sent the players back to the dressing room but play resumed after a five-minute interruption and Michel Bastos converted the penalty to add to Jimmy Briand's first-half opener.
