PARIS (AP) — Neymar won and scored a penalty as Paris Saint-Germain rallied to draw 1-1 at home to Monaco and stay in first place in the French league. Neymar latched onto Lionel Messi’s pass down the left and cut inside central defender Guillermo Maripán, who appeared to catch him with an outstretched leg. Striker Kevin Volland had given Monaco a first-half lead. In the other main game Alexis Sanchez has scored twice for Marseille as coach Igor Tudor’s new-look side won 3-0 at southern rival Nice. Marseille has made a strong start under Tudor who is known as a disciplinarian and whose appointment was questioned by fans. Elsewhere Montpellier cruised to a 7-0 win at Brest.
