Paris Saint Germain player ratings vs Strasbourg: Subs Dembele and Doue secure vital comeback win

Matvey Safonov - 8/10

Matvey Safonov was kept busy despite his team's dominance of the ball, making seven crucial saves to keep the deficit manageable. Safonov could do little about the early opener but was highly reliable between the sticks.

Warren Zaïre-Emery - 7/10

Deployed as a right-back, Warren Zaïre-Emery was the engine room on the flank, constantly recycling possession and attempting to drive forward. While Zaïre-Emery lacked a killer final ball today, his composure ensured control over the tempo.

Illia Zabarnyi - 8/10

A pivotal performance from Illia Zabarnyi. While the centre-back had a testing time dealing with counter-attacks in the first half, Zabarnyi rose highest in the 77th minute to head home the equaliser from a cross.

Lucas Hernández - 7/10

Solid enough in the physical duels, Lucas Hernández provided a steady platform for the build-up play. Hernández played the full match and anchored the backline effectively as the formation shifted late in the game.

Lucas Digne - 5/10

A difficult afternoon for Lucas Digne. The veteran left-back struggled to offer the overlapping threat required to stretch the narrow defensive shape and Digne was hooked early in the second half.

Lucas Beraldo - 6.5/10

Operating in the midfield, Lucas Beraldo was tidy on the ball but lacked the defensive assertiveness needed to shut down early momentum. Beraldo was part of a double change shortly after the break.

João Neves - 7/10

João Neves showed flashes of immense potential with some incisive progressive passes, but was often crowded out. Neves worked hard defensively before making way in the 63rd minute.

Dro Fernández - 7.5/10

An impressive outing for Dro Fernández, who created multiple chances and was highly rated for his technical quality. Fernández linked the play well but was substituted to allow for a more direct attacking approach.

Maghnes Akliouche - 6.5/10

Maghnes Akliouche showed intelligence in his positioning but lacked the end product today. Akliouche missed a huge chance in the 9th minute and had another dangerous shot saved late on.

Ferran Torres - 7/10

A game of persistence for Ferran Torres. The Spaniard provided the assist for the final goal in stoppage time, rewarding his tireless running. Torres created vital gaps for teammates to exploit.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia - 7/10

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was an active threat on the left wing, creating several openings before being withdrawn. Kvaratskhelia looked sharp but the final connection was missing.

Nuno Mendes - 7/10

Brought on in the 53rd minute, Nuno Mendes immediately provided much-needed width to the team. Mendes forced the opposition deeper with his pace.

Vitinha - 7/10

The introduction of Vitinha in the 54th minute brought much-needed control to the midfield. Vitinha was highly effective at progressing the ball through the lines.

Désiré Doué - 8/10

A high-impact cameo from Désiré Doué. Doué added energy and capped off the performance with a well-taken goal in the 93rd minute.

Ousmane Dembélé - 8.5/10

The undisputed game-changer. Despite missing a penalty, Dembélé responded by assisting the equaliser and then scoring the winner. Dembélé provided a masterclass in mental resilience.

Achraf Hakimi - 7/10

Hakimi provided another dimension on the right flank after his introduction. Hakimi forced the wing-backs into a purely defensive role.

Luis Enrique - 8/10

Manager Luis Enrique deserves immense credit for his proactive substitutions. Enrique completely altered the flow of the match with his changes, ultimately overwhelming the opposition.
