Ferran Torres seizes the spotlight as PSG hero and nears Ibrahimovic‑level

Ferran Torres delivered the knockout blow in PSG’s 2‑1 victory over Marseille at the fiery Vélodrome, transforming the match moments after coming off the bench. Introduced in the 59th minute, the Spanish forward needed only seven minutes to meet a precise cross from Désiré Doué and slip between Egan‑Riley and Aguerd before beating goalkeeper De Lange. Marseille briefly equalised through Angel Gomes, but Marquinhos restored PSG’s lead and sealed the win in a tense edition of Le Classique.

Torres’s decisive strike adds to a remarkable run of efficiency: he has scored with each of his first seven shots on target for PSG across all competitions. Only Zlatan Ibrahimovic produced a stronger early impact, netting eight goals in his first six appearances for the club. Luis Enrique has praised Torres’s sharp movement and finishing, and with four Ligue 1 goals already, the Spaniard is pushing hard for a permanent starting role.
