PARIS - Paris Saint-Germain celebrated David Beckham's arrival in the French capital with an emphatic 4-0 rout of 10-man Toulouse on Friday that provisionally pushed the title favourites three points clear at the top of Ligue 1.
Javier Pastore, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Mamadou Sakho and Gregory van der Wiel were all on target for PSG at Stade Municipal as Carlo Ancelotti's side capped a memorable 24 hours in style.
A seventh win in eight games for PSG moved them onto 48 points with second-place Lyon away to Ajaccio on Sunday and Marseille, who are on 42, at home to basement side Nancy.
With all the off the field headlines a day after Beckham - England's most capped outfield player - penned a five-month deal with the Parisians, there was little sign of the former Manchester United and Real Madrid star's transfer causing any disruption to PSG's title pursuit.
