PSG Start Champions League Title Defense with Dominant Win

PSG Dominate Slovan Bratislava in Champions League Opener

The reigning champions showed their strength in Europe, bouncing back from a slow league start by thumping Slovakian club Slovan Bratislava 6-1 at the Parc des Princes. The star performers were Ousmane Dembélé, who scored twice and assisted two more goals, and Ferran Torres, who netted a hat-trick to seal the victory.

This commanding win marked a perfect beginning to PSG's defense of their Champions League crown, making it clear they are a force to be reckoned with on the continental stage.
