Runaway leaders Paris St Germain suffered a minor hiccup in their bid for a fourth straight Ligue 1 title when promoted Angers denied them a 10th consecutive win in a goalless stalemate on Tuesday.
PSG, who had won all their league games since Sept 22, had the best chances but Angers keeper Ludovic Butelle put in an impressive to display to keep them at bay at the Jean-Bouin stadium. Laurent Blanc's side have 42 points from 16 games and lead second-placed Caen, who travel to Monaco on Wednesday, by 14 points. Angers are third on 27 points.
Nice remained fourth on 25 points after being held to a 0-0 draw at mid-table Lorient. PSG's Zlatan Ibrahimovic started on the bench at Angers, as Blanc opted to field Edinson Cavani as a lone striker with Lucas and Angel Di Maria on the flanks. Uruguay striker Cavani was wasteful and smashed Butelle's post with an early header.
Di Maria also hit the woodwork in the 33rd minute with a fierce strike from just inside the box. Angers had their best opportunity when Romain Thomas's header hit the crossbar seven minutes before the break and they had Butelle to thank for making superb saves to deny Serge Aurier and Adrien Rabiot.
Ibrahimovic replaced Lucas in the 72nd minute but had little impact as Angers continued their impressive league run.
