Saved again by its replacements, PSG overthrow Strasbourg and temporarily take control of Ligue 1

The conquering version of Paris Saint-Germain is still not out in Ligue 1. The reigning French champion experienced another difficult championship match, but finally came through on Saturday October 17 on the Strasbourg pitch (3-1). Trailing for an hour after Giovanni Reyna's opener (17th), the Parisians accelerated in the last third of the match, boosted by the entries of Désiré Doué, Vitinha and especially Ousmane Dembélé.

The outgoing Golden Ball delivered the decisive pass on Illia Zabarnyi's equalizer (77th) and scored the goal which put PSG in control of the match (85th). The latter was also the penultimate passer on the third and final Parisian goal, signed Désiré Doué (90th + 2), which allowed his team to move into the leadership of Ligue 1 for the first time this season. A reaction of pride which allows us to look forward with confidence to the Champions League clash against Barça scheduled for Tuesday.
