Veteran defender Sergio Ramos received a red card before the end of the first half, but the defending champion, who missed Lionel Messi through injury, managed to come out with a clean sheet.
Paris Saint-Germain has 26 points from 10 matches, 3 points ahead of Olympique Marseille, who fell 1-2 to its guest Ajaccio earlier on Saturday, while Reims has 8 points in 14th place.
Reims played bravely and his goalkeeper Yvan Diouf saved Paris Saint-Germain’s most dangerous chance from Kylian Mbappe in the 33rd minute.
Ramos was booked for his argument with the referee, who returned to display a direct red card for the Spanish defender.
The expulsion carries the number 28 in Ramos’ career, which extends with Seville and Real Madrid, the Spanish, and the Paris team.
Paris Saint-Germain coach Christophe Galtier included his Brazilian player Neymar, instead of midfielder Carlos Soler, in search of victory, but the visiting team lacked creativity and settled for a draw.
