Ferran Torres, who arrived in the capital this summer, scored his first hat-trick in C1 against the Slovak club, while Ousmane Dembélé, for his part, went with a double and two assists. The presences on the bench at kick-off of Marquinhos, Khvicha Kvaratskhelia or Désiré Doué did not handicap Luis Enrique's collective. Paris temporarily takes the lead in the league phase with this festival.
In the other matches of the evening, Barça was not idle either with a large 5-1 success at Camp Nou against Feyenoord. Surprised at first by Atlético de Madrid, Liverpool managed to force the lock to win 2-1 at Anfield, but perhaps lost Bradley Barcola, out through injury. Traveling to Naples, English champions Arsenal had many situations in a match where they clearly dominated their opponents. The Londoners relied on their captain, Martin Odegaard, to score their first success (0-1) of the season in the competition. Stuttgart - against Viking FK - and Sporting - against Galatasaray - won 3-1. Relive this entire multiplex in the live commentary from franceinfo: sport.

🎙️ Ousmane Dembélé at the microphone of Canal+: “We had to start well in this Champions League”
"After a somewhat complicated start where I didn't play much, I played 20, 45 minutes, it wasn't easy to come back. I'm happy today to have had 60 minutes in my legs. We also had to win this match because we started the season badly, and we had to start well in this Champions League that we know well. I'm happy with my performance too. We have to continue, and in the league, we have to come back too."

🎙️ Ferran Torres at the microphone of Canal+: "I'm lucky, I'm making the most of it"
"I didn't expect to score a hat-trick, I expected us to have the right intensity, we pressed well, with good ball recovery, we had a very good match. I have good feelings, I'm lucky, I'm enjoying it, I'm just trying to be useful and stay focused. There are two big matches coming up against City and Barça, but before that we're going to try to concentrate on Ligue 1 where we haven't done very well started."
