Paris Saint-Germain warmed up for their highly anticipated Champions League quarter-final against Liverpool in the best possible way, securing a professional 3-1 victory over Toulouse at the Parc des Princes. The win, which opened Matchday 28 of Ligue 1, allows Luis Enrique’s side to pull four points clear of second-placed Lens with a game still in hand.
The Dembélé Show
With the massive European clash against Liverpool looming on Wednesday (April 8), Luis Enrique opted to rotate his squad, leaving key figures like Marquinhos, João Neves, and Vitinha on the bench. However, Ousmane Dembélé ensured there was no lack of firepower on the pitch.
The French international striker was in inspired form, netting twice in the first half to put the hosts in control. Dembélé opened the scoring in the 23rd minute and, after Toulouse briefly silenced the home crowd with a Rasmus Nicolaisen equalizer in the 27th minute, Dembélé struck again just six minutes later (33′) to restore the lead.
Tactical Control and Stoppage Time Seal
PSG managed the second half with an eye on their fitness levels, maintaining possession and limiting Toulouse’s chances. The victory was finally put beyond doubt in stoppage time (90’+2) when Gonçalo Ramos found the back of the net to make it 3-1.
The result puts immense pressure on Lens and reaffirms PSG’s dominance in the domestic title race. More importantly, it provides the “Parisiens” with a much-needed morale boost and winning momentum before they host Liverpool in a season-defining Champions League encounter.

- Scorers:
- PSG: Dembélé (23′, 33′), Ramos (90’+2)
