Paris Saint-Germain claimed a third straight Trophy of Champions with a 2-0 win over Lyon at Montreal's Stade Saputo on Saturday.

Full-back Serge Aurier headed the first goal in the 11th minute and Uruguay striker Edinson Cavani scored from close range seven minutes later.

Lyon, runners-up to PSG in Ligue 1 last season, finished the game with 10 men after Maxime Gonalons was shown a second yellow card just after the hour mark.

PSG were without Argentina internationals Javier Pastore and Ezequiel Lavezzi, who have returned to the squad late following their involvement in the Copa America.

The two teams prepared for the game in contrasting fashion.

Lyon had lost five out of six friendlies, including a 6-0 hammering by Arsenal in the Emirates Cup, while PSG beat Manchester United, Fiorentina and Benfica in the International Champions Cup
