Ferran Torres hits hat-trick as PSG cruise past Slovan | OneFootball

Ferran Torres marked his Champions League debut for Paris Saint-Germain with a hat-trick as the holders swept aside Slovan Bratislava 6-1 at the Parc des Princes.

Ousmane Dembélé was at the heart of PSG’s blistering start, opening the scoring after 17 minutes by following up Nuno Mendes’ shot off the post. The Ballon d’Or winner doubled the advantage six minutes later, heading in from Dro Fernández’s cross.

Dembélé then turned provider, teeing up Torres for a simple finish before the Spanish forward added another shortly after half-time with a superb curled effort from the edge of the area.

Torres completed his treble in the 57th minute, converting Dembélé’s corner from close range to cap an outstanding European debut.

Slovan briefly reduced the deficit through Suleiman Camara, but PSG continued to dominate. Fabian Ruiz completed the rout late on after capitalising on a defensive mistake.
