Champions League holders Paris Saint-Germain stunned Barcelona with a 90th-minute Gonçalo Ramos winner to claim a 2-1 away victory in the league stage on Wednesday, October 1. Ferran Torres sent hosts Barcelona ahead with a cool finish but Senny Mayulu fired a depleted PSG level before half-time.
"After scoring the (first) goal we got a confidence boost and in the second half we were better," Luis Enrique told reporters. "I'm happy... because it's an important victory and playing against Barcelona is always difficult."
It was an even and thoroughly entertaining bout between two of the competition's favorites at Olympic Stadium, which was eventually settled by Ramos' late strike, as PSG exploited Barça's high defensive line. Hansi Flick selected Torres over veteran striker Robert Lewandowski and also benched Ronald Araujo for Eric Garcia, after the Uruguayan's red card against PSG in 2024. It was lacking several key players and his team held on at times but eventually got the better of last season's semi-finalists.
