Welcome back, Javier Pastore.
The Argentine, making his first Ligue 1 start for Paris Saint-Germain since Sept. 20, clipped a gorgeous pass to hitman Edinson Cavani to extend the champion's lead over Marseille on Sunday.
Cavani's finish gave him 26 league goals this season - one short of a career high - but it was only possible because of Pastore's sneaky footwork.
Pastore returned to Unai Emery's starting XI after months of battling various calf, knee, hip, and thigh injuries.
