PSG Celebrates Goal Fest, Barcelona Takes It Easy
Paris St. Germain set a new Champions League record with a spectacular performance. In their 6-0 win over Villarreal, the defending champions scored four goals in the first 17 minutes—the earliest such feat in the history of the “Champions League.”

Four PSG Goals in 16:02 Minutes
Despite the absence of injured star players Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembele, PSG unleashed a furious offensive onslaught on Spanish soil, aided by the fact that the “Yellow Submarine” completely slept through the opening minutes. Joao Neves (5th min.), Desire Doue (12th min.), Senny Mayulu (13th min.), and Fabian Ruiz (17th min.) had already sealed the deal in just 16:02 minutes, setting a new record according to Opta.
In the second half, Ruiz (50th) and Champions League debutant David Boly (78th) added further goals. The PSG side, coached by Luis Enrique, thus cemented its status as the team with the most goals (20) in the current season.
Barcelona also got off to a dream start at Camp Nou, with superstar Lamine Yamal intercepting a misplaced pass and scoring into the far corner (7th minute). Otherwise, there was little action at first, until Raphinha shone after the break as a two-goal scorer (52', 64'). Sporting Lisbon’s only goal at London’s Stamford Bridge—the alternate venue for Donetsk—was scored by Issa Doumbia (59th minute). The Portuguese side’s only loss of points was the 2–3 home defeat against Austrian champions LASK.
Inter secured a victory at Feyenoord Rotterdam thanks to goals by Yann Bisseck (8th), Pio Esposito (34th), and Piotr Zielinski (54th). Roma, another Italian club, squandered an early 2–0 lead. Bruno Fernandes, who converted a penalty on his second attempt (58th minute), and Matheus Cunha (83rd, 86th minutes) turned the game around for Manchester United at Old Trafford. The match-winner received a yellow card in stoppage time.
