85'
Another long-range Lille effort edges just wide of the post, with Boufal unleashing a low drive from 25 yards out. Half of the ground thought it was in, with Sirigu going berserk at his defenders for not making a block.
83'
Over the top from Luiz! The ex-Benfica defender is picked out on the edge of the penalty area, but can only guide a terrible shot over the crossbar while unbalanced. Despite being a man light, Blanc's men have been playing well since Di Maria's goal.
81'
We're into the final 10 minutes in the Coupe de la Ligue final, with PSG edging their way towards securing a second trophy for the season. From his changes, it appears that Blanc is more than happy to sit back and defend a narrow lead for now.
80'
Good save from Enyeama! The Lille shot-stopper is alert to the danger, racing out to narrow the angle and push a one-on-one effort from Ibrahimovic wide of the post.

79'
David Luiz enters the game and replaces J. Pastore.
Di Maria slides a pass into the path of an overlapping Aurier, with the Ivory Coast international able to force a good save out of Enyeama at his near post! The resulting corner then needs to be acrobatically palmed out of harm's way by the Nigerian shot-stopper.

78'
Soumaoro heads wide! The central defender is picked out in space at the back post, following a free-kick delivery, but can only plant his header into the turf and shy of the right-hand upright.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAL! PSG LEAD 1-0! Enyeama manages to half-clear a corner delivery from the right-hand side, with the Argentina international first to react. He crashes home a 20-yard volley, which squeezes its way beyond several defenders before nestling in the back of the Lille net.
39'
Pastore lifts a lovely throughball into the path of Di Maria, but the Argentine wide man is beaten to it by Enyeama! The Nigeria international has been very alert and quick off his line this evening.

35'
There's a brief stoppage in play, with Basa going down injured in the aftermath of his heroic block. The centre-back appeared to take a firm knock to his shin, which has required liberal amounts of the magic spray. He looks okay to continue, despite taking his time to leave the field of play.

Ibrahimovic races through on goal, after a neat pass found him in behind Basa, but the Swedish forward can only lift a finish over both Enyeama and the crossbar!
29'

27'

19'
S. Aurier gets yellow.
Important interception from Corchia! Just as it appeared that Pastore had managed to set Lucas free in behind enemy lines, the former Sochaux right-back was present and correct to intervene. Moments later, Rabiot causes problems with a looping header over the top of Lille's back four, but Enyeama is quick off his line to mop up ahead of Ibrahimovic.

14'
Aurier drives down the right-hand side, before lifting a cross to the back post from the byline!

5'
Sidibe and Boufal try to combine down the left flank, but an errant touch from the former denies Lille their first opportunity to cause any problems for Les Parisiens.

4'

2'
Big chance for Di Maria! Ibrahimovic is picked out by a diagonal from the left-hand side by Kurzawa, with the Sweden international cushioning an unselfish set-back to the former Manchester United forward. With all of the goal to aim at, the Argentine fires straight at Enyeama.

We are underway in the first half at Stade de France! Ninety minutes stand between either of these two outfits and a trophy for the campaign, with Lille hoping to throw the cat among the pigeons and defeat Les Parisiens this evening.
Hello and welcome to live coverage of the Coupe de la Ligue final between PSG and Lille, as Laurent Blanc's men look for some more silverware to add to this season's haul. After lifting the top-flight title, this cup is the next on Les Parisiens' list, with Stade de France playing host to what should be an entertaining clash.
TEAM NEWS: Salvatore Sirigu is given cup duties once again, with Layvin Kurzawa preferred at left-back. Serge Aurier starts on the opposite flank, with Marquinhos preferred to David Luiz to partner captain Thiago Silva. Adrien Rabiot and Blaise Matuidi will anchor the midfield somewhat, while Angel di Maria and Javier Pastore look to play in close support of top scorer Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
TEAM NEWS: Eder leads the line for the underdogs, with Morgan Amalfitano bringing more top-flight experience to a team that has been in fine form lately. Marko Basa will try to act as the rock at the heart of the Lille defence, with Sebastian Corchia hoping to overlap and cause problems down the right. Captain Rio Mavuba will be hungry for silverware tonight.
Lille substitutes: Balmont, Benzia, Sunzu, Elana, Beria, Tallo, Rony Lopes.
HALF-TIME! PSG head into the interval with a one-goal advantage, courtesy of a scrappy volleyed goal from Pastore. It could be more for Les Parisiens, but for some wasteful shooting, with this contest being one of marauding full-backs. Lille have shown enough to suggest that they can come back into this game this evening.
FULL TIME! PSG LIFT THE COUPE DE LA LIGUE! Goals from Pastore and Di Maria wrap up a 2-1 victory over Lille, with Sidibe's equaliser making things rather hairy for a while. Blanc's side triumph with only ten men, after a second-half red card for Rabiot. The benches empty and there are scenes of jubilation and desolation on the field all at once. That's all that we have time for, we hope to see you again.
