PSG rout Slovan 6-1 and Yaya Touré says the trophy is near

PSG sent a clear message on their latest Champions start, handing Slovan Bratislava a 6-1 defeat with a display defined by control and seriousness. As RMC Sport reports, the French side—Europe’s current double champions—kicked off their quest for a possible “triple” in the Champions League by dominating convincingly.

Speaking after the match, Yaya Touré couldn’t avoid pointing to how one-sided the game looked in Paris’s favour. His takeaway is that PSG look well-equipped again to go all the way and challenge for the top prize.

A statement result in Europe

That 6-1 scoreline matters beyond the numbers. It underlines that PSG can impose themselves not just with moments, but with a sustained level of performance at an important stage.

Of course, the Champions League doesn’t end after one night. This result gives momentum, but the competition will demand consistency over the coming matchdays.

Touré’s key line

“Paris est encore proche de gagner ce trophée,” as RMC Sport quotes Touré, sums up why the PSG camp is reading this win as another step toward their European goal.
