Ferran Torres became the hero of Paris Saint-Germain by rescuing a dramatic 2-2 draw against Rennes at the start of Ligue 1. The Spanish forward, a World Cup winner and the latest signing for Luis Enrique’s side, enjoyed a dream debut and showed his class in just one half.

The situation was critical for the Parisian team. At the end of the first half, Rennes were leading convincingly 2-0 against a disjointed PSG. That was when the coach decided to turn to the bench and send the former Barcelona attacker onto the pitch in the 46th minute for the second half.

A quick-fire brace to change the story

The forward’s presence completely transformed the team’s attack. Despite not having gone through preseason alongside his new teammates, the player showed a relentless pace and led the comeback with a deadly scoring burst:

  1. 71st minute: He scored to make it 2-1 and spark hope.
  2. 82nd minute: He met the ball with a precise header to make it 2-2, which proved to be the final score.

With two goals in the span of just 11 minutes, the player delivered an immediate-impact performance and made it clear that he arrived in France ready to compete at the highest level.
