Ibrahimovic breaks PSG goal record

Reading time: minutes

Paris Saint-Germains forward Zlatan Ibrahimovic (C) celebrates after scoring a penatly during a French L1 football match against Marseille on October 4, 2015 at the Parc des Princes stadium in Paris

Sweden striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic became the all-time leading goalscorer in Paris Saint-Germain history on Sunday after breaking Pauleta's record of 109 goals against Marseille.

Ibrahimovic drew level with the former Portugal international's mark after converting a 41st-minute penalty at the Parc des Princes.

The 34-year-old, who joined PSG from AC Milan in July 2012, then claimed the record outright just three minutes later, after the home side were awarded another spot-kick with Ibrahimovic holding his nerve to beat Steve Mandanda again.

Ligue 1 leaders PSG led the match 2-1 at half-time.
