Posted on October 22, 2025
Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) delivered a stunning performance in their Champions League match against Bayer Leverkusen, emerging with a commanding 7-2 victory. The match marked a significant comeback for Ousmane Dembélé, who made a notable impact after returning from injury, scoring his first goal of the Champions League season.
The scoring opened early, with Willian Pacho netting his first goal for PSG in the 7th minute, setting the tone for a dominant display. Despite the early lead, Leverkusen fought back, earning a penalty that was converted by Aleix Garcia, leveling the score at 1-1 after a series of dramatic events, including red cards for both teams.
Désiré Doué was the standout performer, scoring two goals before halftime, helping PSG regain control of the match after a brief Leverkusen resurgence. His first goal came in the 42nd minute, and just before the halftime whistle, he added another, pushing the score to 4-1 as PSG scored three goals in quick succession.
In the second half, PSG continued their onslaught with Nuno Mendes scoring shortly after the break. Although Leverkusen pulled one back through a stunning long-range strike from Garcia, the hosts were unable to maintain their momentum.
Dembélé, who had just entered the game, quickly made his mark by scoring in the 66th minute, showcasing his skill and creativity. Vitinha capped off PSG's impressive performance with a superb strike in the dying moments of the match, sealing a remarkable victory for the French champions.
PSG's win reflects their attacking capabilities and depth, especially with several key players sidelined due to injury. The team is now looking forward to their next match against Brest in Ligue 1, aiming to carry this momentum into their domestic campaign. This victory not only boosts morale but also reinforces PSG's status as a formidable contender in the Champions League.
