Paris Saint-Germain secured a 4-2 victory over Barcelona in the Champions League at Parc des Princes, marking their third consecutive win. Désiré Doué, Lucas Hernandez, Vitinha, and Fabian Ruiz scored for PSG, while Xavi Espart and Lamine Yamal netted for Barcelona. Despite the strong start, head coach Luis Enrique cautioned against complacency, recalling a previous season where nine points at this stage did not guarantee a top-eight finish. He stressed that the knockout stages in April would be the truly decisive moments.

The victory was overshadowed by significant injury news: striker Khvicha Kvaratskhelia suffered a torn ACL, requiring surgery, and attackers Ousmane Dembélé and captain Marquinhos face several weeks out with thigh injuries. Former France international Bixente Lizarazu lauded PSG's collective strength under Enrique, calling them "unbeatable."
