Analysis The numbers behind the result
Dembélé and Torres tear Bratislava apart in PSG's rampant display
PSG's 6-1 victory was fully deserved, as their dominance in both possession (72%) and shot volume (35 total shots, 14 on target) overwhelmed Slovan Bratislava. The hosts' 23 shots inside the box to Bratislava's 5 underscored their attacking intensity, with Ousmane Dembélé (17', 23') and Ferrán Torres (31', 47', 57') putting the game beyond doubt by the hour mark. Dembélé not only scored twice but also provided two assists, highlighting his central role in PSG's creative output.
Despite Bratislava's lone consolation goal from Suleiman Camara (58'), PSG's superior chance creation (7 corners to 2) and shot accuracy (14 on target vs Bratislava's 4) made this a one-sided affair. Torres' hat-trick, assisted twice by Dembélé and once by Maghnes Akliouche, exemplified PSG's fluid attacking interplay. The decisive stat? PSG's 14 shots on target to Bratislava's 4 – a clear indicator of their ruthless efficiency in front of goal.
