Dembele shines as PSG rallies to defeat Strasbourg 3-1

Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured a 3-1 victory against Strasbourg at the Stade de la Meinau, moving to the top of the French Ligue 1 table. PSG initially trailed after Giovanni Reyna scored for Strasbourg in the 17th minute.

Ousmane Dembele missed a penalty in the 72nd minute but redeemed himself by assisting Illia Zabarnyi for the equalizer in the 78th minute. Dembele then scored to give PSG a 2-1 lead with five minutes remaining and assisted Desire Doue for the third goal in stoppage time.

This match was particularly challenging for PSG, coming just three days after their 4-2 Champions League win over Manchester City and three days before facing Barcelona. Coach Luis Enrique made eight changes to the lineup, including starting Dembele on the bench.

With this win, PSG achieved four straight Ligue 1 victories and six consecutive wins across all competitions, accumulating 14 points from seven matches.
