Paris Saint-Germain recovered from a first-half deficit to defeat Strasbourg 3-1 in Ligue 1, with Ousmane Dembele making a decisive impact from the bench. However, the victory brought injury concerns ahead of PSG’s Champions League meeting with Barcelona.

Strasbourg took the lead through United States midfielder Gio Reyna before PSG scored three second-half goals. Dembele contributed a goal and an assist despite missing a penalty. Nuno Mendes later left the pitch with thigh discomfort, forcing PSG to finish with ten players after using all available substitutions. Luis Enrique said the defender would undergo further assessment, with Magnes Akliouche also reported to be carrying a physical problem.
