Ferran Torres Fires PSG to First Ligue 1 Win, Matches Club Record With Six Goals in Five Games

Paris Saint-Germain claimed their first Ligue 1 win of the season, beating Brest 1-0 away thanks to another goal from summer signing Ferran Torres, who has now matched a club record with six goals in his opening five appearances.

Torres put PSG ahead inside five minutes, intercepting a loose pass from Joris Chotard before exchanging passes with Ousmane Dembele and curling home from the edge of the box. It continued a remarkable start for the World Cup-winning Spaniard following his move from Barcelona, having also scored a hat-trick in midweek during PSG's 6-1 Champions League thrashing of Slovan Bratislava. Only Zlatan Ibrahimovic has previously managed six goals in his first five PSG appearances.

Brest pushed hard for an equaliser throughout, with goalkeeper Matvey Safonov called into repeated action, including a crucial fingertip save to deny Pathe Mboup late on, while Achraf Hakimi was forced off with a muscular issue in the first half. The win ends a sluggish start to the domestic season for Luis Enrique's side, who had taken just two points from their opening three league matches following a shock defeat to Monaco, restoring confidence heading into the coming international break.
