Overview
- Paris Saint‑Germain beat Lens 2-0 at the Parc des Princes with a Bradley Barcola double to stay top of Ligue 1, but Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (calf), Lee Kang‑In (ankle) and Lucas Beraldo (ankle) went off injured ahead of Wednesday’s Champions League opener against Atalanta.
- With Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué already sidelined, Luis Enrique rotated heavily as Achraf Hakimi captained a back line in front of new keeper Lucas Chevalier, and PSG survived early scares to keep a clean sheet.
