Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), the current Champions League champion, began its title defense with a resounding victory (6-1) against Slovan of Slovakia.
Ousmane Dembélé opened the scoring for the Parisian club in the 17th minute after a rebound from the goalkeeper fell perfectly for him, and he simply had to tap the ball in for his first goal of the match.
Just minutes later, Dembélé struck again against Slovan after a brilliant dribble that left him one-on-one with the opposing goalkeeper, who could only watch as the ball went in.
With the game tilted in their favor and the Slovakian team trying to reduce the deficit, Spanish striker Ferran Torres scored three goals (in the 31st, 47th, and 57th minutes) to seal the rout for Luis Enrique’s men.
A combination between Tigran Barseghyan and Suleiman Camara paid off in the 58th minute, resulting in a consolation goal for Slovan.
Midfielder Fabián Ruiz scored the sixth for the reigning Champions League champions as the game entered its final phase after a shot from the penalty spot that caught the Slovan defense off guard.
