Dembélé Fires PSG to Dominant Champions League Victory Over Brest

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) delivered an impressive performance in the UEFA Champions League, securing a convincing 3-0 victory over Stade Brestois 29. The match, played at the Stade de Roudourou, saw the French champions assert their dominance with a well-rounded display of attacking football.

Ousmane Dembélé was instrumental in PSG’s success, scoring twice to bring his season tally to a career-best 23 goals. The French winger showcased his finishing ability and technical skill, playing a key role in PSG's attacking threat. Under Luis Enrique’s tactical approach, PSG maintained control throughout the game, dictating possession and tempo.

PSG took the lead through a penalty after Brest’s Pierre Lees-Melou was penalized for a handball. Initially overlooked by the referee, the decision was overturned after a VAR review, allowing Vitinha to convert from the spot and give PSG an early advantage.

Brest had a brief opportunity to respond when Sima’s effort struck the post from a corner, but PSG’s defense remained solid. Goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had a moment of uncertainty, nearly allowing the hosts back into the game, but the Italian shot-stopper was ultimately untroubled as the ball went wide.

Just before halftime, Dembélé extended PSG’s lead with a precise left-footed strike that beat the Brest goalkeeper at the near post. In the second half, he sealed the victory by capitalizing on a tiring Brest defense, scoring his second goal of the match and securing the three points for his team.
