"We're going to have a good holiday because we're at the top of the league after another good performance," PSG coach Carlo Ancelotti said. "It wasn't an easy match because of the pitch and our opponent." Ibrahimovic broke the deadlock in the 55th minute with his 18th league goal of the season. Kevin Gameiro doubled PSG's lead before an own goal by Bernard Mendy sealed the result. AP
Real Madrid coach Jose Mourinho says his club do not plan to sell little-used midfielder Kaka during the winter transfer window. "I don't think Kaka will leave," Mourinho said, adding that keeping the Brazilian would give the team more strength in depth. The 30-year-old Brazil playmaker has started only four matches for Madrid this season, adding to speculation that he would seek a transfer after failing to secure one last summer. Mourinho said he did not expect the team to make any signings despite being 13 points adrift of Barcelona. AP
