A funny scene between Ousmane Dembélé and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia was captured on the PSG bench during the big success against Slovan Bratislava (6-1) in the Champions League. After leaving the pitch at the end of an XXL performance, punctuated by two goals and two assists, the Ballon d’Or turned to his Georgian teammate, who remained on the bench, to tease him: “ Aren’t you coming back? “, Dembélé told him with a smile. A good-natured exchange between the two Parisian attackers at the heart of a perfectly controlled evening.

For this first day of the Champions League, Luis Enrique had in fact decided to start Ferran Torres on the left side of the attack in place of Kvaratskhelia. A choice largely rewarded since the Spaniard scored a hat-trick in his first European match under his new colors. Kvaratskhelia therefore did not participate in the Parisian offensive festival, which gave Dembélé the opportunity to gently undermine him. A friendly sequence between the current Ballon d’Or and one of the players who could, in turn, one day claim the prestigious award.
