No Neymar no problem as Cavani powers PSG

PARIS - With Neymar out with an injury, Edinson Cavani picked up the scoring slack and reached a century of goals in Ligue 1 with a brace in Paris Saint-Germain's 5-0 romp at Angers on Saturday.

Neymar, this summer's $264 million signing, sat out the match at Stade Raymond Kopa with a minor thigh problem picked up in the midweek Champions League win over Anderlecht but he was not missed as PSG maintained a four-point lead over Monaco atop Ligue 1.

Kylian Mbappe and Julian Draxler both scored early goals and Cavani netted his 100th in France's top flight on the half-hour mark.
