# Torres's Early Goal Secures PSG's First Ligue 1 Win of the Season *Ferran Torres's early goal secured Paris Saint-Germain's first win of the Ligue 1 season with a 1-0 victory over Brest.* September 14, 2026 ยท Sports Ferran Torres's early strike guided Paris Saint-Germain to their first Ligue 1 win of the season, a 1-0 victory over Brest on Sunday. The Spanish forward, who joined PSG from Barcelona in the close season, continued his fine form with a sumptuous goal just five minutes into the match at Stade Francis-Le Ble. Prior to this match, Luis Enrique's side had struggled in the league, managing only two points from their opening three games. However, their midweek 6-1 thrashing of Slovan Bratislava in the Champions League seemed to reignite their form, and Torres's goal ensured they got off the mark domestically as well. Torres, who scored the winning goal for Spain in the World Cup final this summer, has now scored six goals in five appearances for PSG across all competitions. His early goal was set up by a deft backheel from Ousmane Dembele, allowing Torres to slot the ball past goalkeeper Egil Selvik. PSG's victory was not without its challenges. Morocco captain and right-back Achraf Hakimi limped off just before half-time, replaced by Fabian Ruiz. Brest had their chances, with Kamory Doumbia hitting the post and Warren Zaire-Emery having a goal disallowed for a push. However, PSG goalkeeper Matvey Safonov made a crucial late save to secure the win. The result lifted PSG to eighth in the Ligue 1 table, with an identical record to their hosts. Brest had been unbeaten heading into the encounter but were unable to hold off the reigning champions. Ahead of kick-off, Brest paid tribute to their former coach Eric Roy, who passed away in June after a battle with pancreatic cancer. In other Ligue 1 action, Ethan Mbappe scored a late goal to help Lille secure a 2-0 win over Troyes, sending them to the top of the table. Mbappe, the younger brother of France and Real Madrid star Kylian, had been sent off in midweek for elbowing an opponent but showed maturity by redeeming himself with a crucial goal. Lille's victory under new coach Davide Ancelotti, son of Brazil boss Carlo Ancelotti, has seen them take 10 points from a possible 12. Meanwhile, last season's surprise title challengers Lens continue to struggle domestically, drawing 2-2 with newly-promoted Le Mans to leave them in 10th place. ## Sources - BSS --- Source: https://pulsetoday.com.bd/en/sports/torres-fires-psg-to-first-ligue-1-win
