PARIS, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Lionel Messi scored a stunning free kick in added time to earn Paris St Germain a 4-3 comeback win over Lille on Sunday and lift them seven points clear at the top of the Ligue 1 standings. Christophe Galtier's side doubled their lead six minutes later when Neymar tapped in a Vitinha cross to finish off a flowing move. Lille won a penalty after Marco Verratti tugged Tiago Djalo's shirt and David coolly converted the spot kick to level the score. Messi won a free kick five minutes into stoppage time and the Argentine curled it into the bottom corner to score his 11th league goal of the season and seal a dramatic victory for PSG. Lens secured a 3-1 home win over Nantes to move up to 49 points, level with Marseille in third.
