Zlatan Ibrahimovic netted a hat-trick as Paris-Saint Germain beat Valenciennes 4-0 in Ligue 1 on Tuesday.
Ezequiel Lavezzi added a fourth late on, while the in-form Ibrahimovic reached 17 goals for the season.
The Swede joined from AC Milan during the summer, and his latest strikes have enabled PSG to move to within two points of leaders Lyon at the top of the table.
It was the sixth time this season that the 31-year-old has scored two or more goals in the same match.
PSG opened the scoring on 29 thanks to an excellent pass from Javier Pastore who found Jeremy Menez.
His shot was parried by Nicolas Penneteau only for Ibrahimovic to turn in the rebound.
Three minutes after the break, Menez was again the provider as Pastore's strike was saved by Penneteau and Ibrahimovic swept home his second of the night.
Menez conjured up the assist for Ibrahimovic's third in the 53rd minute, as he tapped home for the hat-trick.
Elsewhere, Nice beat nine-man Rennes 1-0 with Daro Cvitanich scoring the only goal from the penalty spot after both Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik and Yassine Jebbour had been sent off.
