Ousmane Dembélé continued his remarkable scoring streak, netting twice to lead PSG to victory over Brest. His first goal came just before halftime, and he added another in the 66th minute, bringing his season tally to 23 goals, with 18 in the last 11 matches. Dembélé's form has been pivotal for PSG, contributing significantly to their unbeaten run against Brest, which dates back to 1985. His performance was praised by PSG manager Luis Enrique, who highlighted Dembélé's growing confidence and impact on the team's success [1] [3].

PSG's dominance was evident from the start, with Vitinha opening the scoring through a penalty after a handball by Brest's Pierre Lees-Melou. Despite Brest's attempts to level the score, including a close header from Abdallah Sima that hit the post, PSG maintained control. The team's tactical execution and ability to capitalize on their chances set them apart. PSG's defense also played a crucial role, thwarting Brest's offensive efforts and maintaining a clean sheet [2] [1].

Brest faces a formidable challenge in the return leg at the Parc des Princes. Despite showing resilience and creating opportunities, they were unable to convert these into goals against PSG's robust defense. Brest coach Eric Roy acknowledged the difficulty of overturning the 3-0 deficit, stating, "Not many people will imagine us winning 4-0 at the Parc des Princes." The team will need to regroup and strategize to overcome PSG's advantage and keep their Champions League hopes alive [3] [1].
