Dembele match winner
Paris St. Germain storm towards the round of 16
Paris St. Germain have taken a big step towards the last 16 of the Champions League. Coach Luis Enrique's side beat French Ligue 1 rivals Stade Brest 3-0 in the first leg of their play-off tie in Guingamp on Tuesday evening and now have all the cards in their own hands in the decisive match in front of their own fans on February 19.
After a 3:1 and 5:2 win in the league, PSG also won their third match of the season.
Ousmane Dembele played the biggest part in the fifth consecutive competitive win. The 27-year-old scored the first penalty. Pierre Lees-Melou fended off Dembele's shot in the penalty area with his hand, and Vitinha (21) confidently converted the spot-kick. Shortly before the break, the hosts allowed Dembele to run unchallenged into the penalty area and finish with a left-footed shot into the near corner. With a little luck, the striker completed his brace in the 66th minute - this time with the right. It was his sixth goal of the season in the "premier class".
Brest almost equalized in the meantime when PSG captain Marquinhos attempted to clear a header from a bar in his own penalty area (35').
