Bronze Angel Di Maria's left foot and enshrine it in a museum for future generations to study.

The Argentine winger made it 2-0 for Paris Saint-Germain on Saturday against Montpellier at the Parc des Princes to briefly move the capital club atop the table on 80 points ahead of Monaco's visit to Lyon on Sunday. The principality side now has two matches in hand on the four-time defending Ligue 1 winner.

Edinson Cavani also scored for PSG in the 29th minute to give the Uruguayan international 31 league goals on the campaign, the most in Europe's top-five leagues. The former Napoli standout has now scored against all 27 Ligue 1 sides he's faced, and with the assist on Di Maria's strike, has been involved in 34 of the club's 68 league goals this campaign.
