PARIS SAINT-GERMAIN dropped two points in the most incredible game against Amiens.
Thomas Tuchel’s runaway Ligue 1 leaders travelled north to face the lowly Unicorns, who entered the game in the relegation zone.

The German coach made a couple of notable changes from the 6-1 win at Dijon in midweek – Kylian Mbappe was rested and Neymar remains out – but still named a strong XI.
However, Amiens took a shock lead after just five minutes, Serhou Guirassy being slid through before firing home and by half-time it was panic stations.
Just before the half hour mark, Chelsea flop Gael Kakuta smashed home a brilliant effort into the top corner and ten minutes later Fousseni Diabate added a third with a fine solo effort.
PSG found a glimmer of hope just before the break, former Manchester United star Ander Herrera – playing at right-back – volleying home at the back post from a corner.
Poor defending from corners was to prove Amiens’ downfall.
Twice more, in the space of five minutes, the home side conceded goals from corners.
Centre-back Tanguy Kouassi scored both times, leaping highest to power in a pair of excellent headers, though the defending left plenty to be admired.
With 25 minutes to find a winner, the betting man would have backed PSG to go on and win.
That would have looked like a very smart bet when Mauro Icardi poked in his 19th goal of the season from close range.

But there was one more twist left in this bonkers tale.
With the 90 minutes played and into injury time, the PSG defence went to sleep.
Guirassy latched onto a perfectly weighted pass from the right and was the coolest man in France as he casually slotted home a 91st-minute equaliser.
PSG remain way ahead of closest rivals Marseille, 13 points clear having played a game more.
