Lionel Messi scored in PSG's routine victory over Angers to help the team get back to winning ways after the World Cup.
Once they took the lead in the fifth minute thanks to Ekitike, the Parisians seldom ever appeared to be in jeopardy.
Sima wasted Angers' best opportunity to tie the score in the second half, and Messi shortly scored to give the home team the victory.
Mukiele, a defender for PSG, contributed to both goals. With the victory, PSG's lead atop Ligue 1 increased to six points.
In a 2-0 victory over Angers at home on Wednesday, Paris St. Germain increased their lead in Ligue 1 to six points as Lionel Messi marked his return to action following the World Cup.
Hugo Ekitike scored the game's first goal in the first half, then Messi, who helped Argentina win the World Cup, added another goal from close range in the 72nd minute to give PSG a total of 47 points after 18 games.
All of the goals in RC Lens's 2-2 tie against struggling Racing Strasbourg came before halftime, which cost them two points and kept them in second place.
Ekitike made the most of his second appearance by latching onto a cross from Nordi Mukiele to give the hosts the lead. Ekitike is playing while Kylian Mbappe, who returned from the World Cup quickly, is taking a break.
After the half, Mukiele once more contributed as he set up Messi for a close-range right-foot shot that found the back of the net.
Despite Messi being called offside, the goal was ultimately upheld after a VAR review.
