PSG secured a fine 5-2 away win in Ligue 1, beating a Brest side that has proven to be a tough opponent.

This win not only boosts the confidence of Luis Enrique’s side, but is also a key test ahead of the UEFA Champions League Round of 16, where PSG will face Brest again on 11 and 19 February.

One of the highlights of this match was the stellar performance of Ousmane Dembele, who is having his best moment since joining PSG.

Under Luis Enrique’s guidance, the French striker has reached an outstanding level, becoming the team’s star player and breaking an impressive record.

Ousmane Dembele enters PSG history with an impressive record

Ousmane Dembele has become the first player in PSG history to score two consecutive hat-tricks in official matches, against Stuttgart and now against Brest.

His first great performance came on January 29, when he scored three goals against Stuttgart in the UEFA Champions League, leading PSG to a key victory on German soil.

Just three days later, on February 1, Dembélé shone again with another hat-trick against Brest in Ligue 1, reaffirming his importance within the team and consolidating himself as the most decisive player for PSG today.

With Luis Enrique continuing to strengthen his squad, an increasingly solid PSG and a Dembele in a state of grace, the Parisian team is emerging as a serious candidate to fight for all the titles this season.


From controversy with Luis Enrique to becoming PSG’s star

Dembélé’s path this season has not been easy. At the beginning of the campaign, he was involved in a conflict with Luis Enrique, which led to his exclusion from the UEFA Champions League match against Arsenal.

However, this episode marked a turning point in his attitude, leading him to work with greater commitment and raise his performance to the highest level.

His numbers for the season speak for themselves: in 26 games played, he has scored 19 goals and given 6 assists, as shown by Transfermark. He has established himself as one of the most decisive players in European football.

Currently, his name is mentioned alongside figures such as Lamine Yamal, Mohamed Salah and Vinícius Júnior, proving that he is experiencing one of the best stages of his career.
