PSG v Toulouse – Dembélé, Beraldo, Safonov… hits and misses! | OneFootball

This Friday evening, Paris Saint-Germain claimed a 3-1 (PSG/Toulouse video highlights) win over Toulouse on Matchday 28 of the 2025-2026 Ligue 1 season at the Parc des Princes. Here are the tops and flops from the victory.

Tops –

❤️Great energy.

PSG clearly confirmed tonight the physical improvement seen in the last matches before the international break. The suffocating press immediately after losing the ball was back, along with everyone pitching in whenever the opponent managed to break out of it. Désiré Doué and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia were great symbols of that. Their movement to keep the passing flowing was also impressive.

Dembélé, relaxed genius

He scored a brace, although the second goal was not particularly remarkable. There was also his overall contribution to the game. But his opener quite naturally stole the spotlight. With a special kind of preparation, completely relaxed and composed, the forward produced a magnificent volley. As if it were easy.

Beraldo in midfield.

We had already seen it against Nice, and Lucas Beraldo was once again used in midfield by Luis Enrique. Once again, the outcome was quite interesting. It will still need to be confirmed against a stronger defensive challenge, but it is encouraging. He already looks comfortable in ball circulation, and his lack of pace is well covered.

Flops –

😡Safonov went looking for trouble.

The 27-year-old goalkeeper mistimed his run off the line, and Ilya Zabarnyi did well to move across and clear for a corner in front of the Toulouse attacker. Then the keeper was guilty of a handling error that TFC took advantage of. It is hard not to see him as the main man responsible for the goal conceded. It may even spark fresh debate in the coming days and lead to yet another shake-up.

Zabarnyi, some risky distribution.

Of course, nothing is ever easy, and a few mistakes are not unusual. But the Ukrainian defender gave the ball away several times in the second half, while PSG were trying to control the game. Maybe a bit too much at times, in fact. And those errors allowed Toulouse to create chances, while Paris went through a bit of a flat spell.
