Paris Saint-Germain secured their place in the Champions League last 16 with a resounding 7-0 victory over Brest in the second leg of their play-off tie. The emphatic win, which saw seven different PSG players find the net, completed a 10-0 aggregate triumph for the French champions.
PSG’s performance was a masterclass in attacking football, with their star-studded lineup running riot against a hapless Brest side. Bradley Barcola opened the scoring in the 20th minute before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia doubled their lead just before half-time.
Vitinha, Désiré Doué, Nuno Mendes, and Gonçalo Ramos all added their names to the scoresheet in the second half before Senny Mayulu completed the rout with a late strike.
PSG’s 7-0 win was their most dominant victory in European competition, while Brest suffered the heaviest defeat ever recorded by a French side in the Champions League. The result also saw PSG become the first team to have seven different scorers in a single Champions League match.
PSG, who are aiming to win their first Champions League title, will now face either Liverpool or Barcelona in the last 16. They will be hoping to continue their impressive form and challenge for European glory.
PSG winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia expressed his delight at the team’s performance and their ambitions for the Champions League.
“We are showing that everything is possible,” Kvaratskhelia said. “Our goal is to win the Champions League. We will do everything in our power to do it.”
PSG’s victory over Brest extends their unbeaten run against the French side to 32 matches, a streak that dates back to 1985.5
