PSG, with Dembélé driving the comeback, overturned Strasbourg and won 1-3 in Ligue 1, keeping Luis Enrique on track ahead of the Champions League clash vs Barça on Tuesday 20 October, according to Mundo Deportivo. The forward was behind the turnaround: he scored the equaliser, netted the go-ahead for the visitors and also set up the third.

Luis Enrique made early changes: Digne, Dro and Zaire-Emery went off for Nuno Mendes, Vintinha and Doué, and later brought on Hakimi and Dembélé. Despite the Frenchman missing a penalty, Zabarnyi levelled things, and eight minutes later Dembélé struck again to move PSG ahead and help secure the win in stoppage time.
