Overview
- Illia Zabarnyi scored in the 33rd minute and fellow center back Lucas Beraldo headed a second in the 55th as PSG won at the Parc des Princes.
- Vitinha assisted the opener before going off late in the first half, and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was replaced at halftime with an apparent thigh issue.
- PSG were already missing Marquinhos, Ballon d’Or winner Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué and João Neves through injury.
- Injury pressures saw academy talent feature, with Senny Mayulu starting and providing the cross for Beraldo, and debuts for Quentin Ndjantou and Mathis Jangeal reported.
- The victory moves PSG to 15 points, three clear after Monaco’s defeat at Lorient, with concerns over depth ahead of the midweek trip to Barcelona.
