Paris St Germain booked their place in the last 16 of the French Cup on Wednesday with a hard-fought 4-2 victory over fifth-tier side FC Espaly.
Espaly sprang an early surprise when Kevis Gjeci capitalised on a mistake by Arnau Tenas to score inside three minutes. PSG dominated but could not find the breakthrough until Warren Zaire-Emery equalised in the 37th minute.
Espaly goalkeeper Jordan Etienne put in an impressive performance after the break but was unable to prevent Desire Doue from scoring in the 67th minute. The hosts pulled one back four minutes later through Maxence Fournel.
PSG, determined to find a winner, continued to attack and with two minutes remaining Bradley Barcola was on hand to head home Nuno Mendes' cross. Goncalo Ramos added the icing on the cake with a penalty in stoppage time.
