(Reuters) - Paris St Germain suffered their first defeat of the season in any competition with Strasbourg ending the runaway leaders' aura of invincibility in Ligue 1 with a 2-1 victory at the Stade de la Meinau on Saturday.

PSG, who had been expected to stretch their 10-point lead with some comfort at a club starting the day in 17th place, were on the end of a major shock as a 65th-minute goal from Stephane Bahoken ended their season-long, 22-match unbeaten sequence.
