Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured a convincing 3-0 victory against Stade Brestois in the first leg of their Champions League playoff at Stade Roudourou. The match saw contributions from Vitinha and a standout performance from Ousmane Dembélé, who netted two goals, helping PSG take a solid lead into the second leg.

The game began with Brest adopting a defensive stance, waiting to exploit counter-attacking opportunities. However, PSG quickly took control when Vitinha converted a penalty after a handball by Brest's Lee-Melou in the 21st minute. This goal opened up the match, allowing PSG to create more chances, although Brest nearly equalized when a header from Sima struck the post.

Dembélé's skill shone through as he scored a brilliant goal on the counterattack, extending PSG's lead to two goals before halftime. Despite Brest's persistent pressure and several close attempts to score, goalkeeper Gianluigi Donnarumma made crucial saves, maintaining PSG's advantage. Dembélé later sealed the victory with his second goal in the 66th minute, demonstrating PSG's clinical finishing throughout the match.

With this significant win, PSG will aim to carry their momentum into the second leg against Brest next week, while also preparing for their upcoming league fixture against Toulouse. The team's performance showcased their offensive prowess and defensive resilience, setting a strong tone for the remainder of the Champions League campaign.
