Overview
- Illya Zabarnyi scored his first PSG goal on 33 minutes and Lucas Beraldo added a header on 55, with both goals coming from defenders.
- Vitinha was withdrawn after 35 minutes following his assist and Kvaratskhelia was replaced at halftime with a left thigh issue, with Luis Enrique saying he could not offer positive news before exams.
- Already without Ousmane Dembélé, João Neves, Désiré Doué, Marquinhos and Fabián Ruiz, PSG fielded a heavily rotated side that included Warren Zaïre‑Emery at right back.
- Academy prospects Quentin Ndjantou and Mathis Jangeal made their first‑team debuts as Paris managed minutes ahead of the midweek Champions League fixture.
- The victory restores first place in Ligue 1 on a provisional basis on a night that also featured Ballon d'Or celebrations for Dembélé at the Parc des Princes.
