PSG blow two-goal lead in League Cup loss

Montpellier, second in the Ligue 1 standings, were also knocked out following a 2-1 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 champions Lille made light work of Ligue 2 side Sedan, goals by Benoit Pedretti, Joe Cole and Ireneusz Jelen giving them a 3-1 home victory.

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.
