Dembélé Leads PSG’s 5–0 Rout of Marseille in Le Classique

The victory put Paris back atop Ligue 1 by two points over Lens.

Overview

  • Ousmane Dembélé scored twice and assisted Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, with Facundo Medina’s own goal and a strike from Lee Kang‑in rounding out the scoreline.
  • Marseille’s defense collapsed, as captain Leonardo Balerdi committed multiple errors and Medina was beaten in the buildup to Dembélé’s second before turning into his own net.
  • Coach Roberto De Zerbi benched Gerónimo Rulli again for Jeffrey de Lange, whose shaky outing invited fresh scrutiny of the selection.
  • Play was halted briefly after discriminatory chants, with a giant‑screen message instructing supporters to stop before the match resumed.
  • PSG dominated territorially and in chances, with reports noting 22 shots as the hosts controlled the match at the Parc des Princes.
