PSG Snatches Dramatic Draw, Atletico’s Unexpected Struggle—What It Means for Europe’s Elites
Paris Saint-Germain began their Ligue 1 title defence with a 2-2 draw away at Rennes, with two goals from debutant Ferran Torres rescuing a point for Luis Enrique’s side.
The fixture venue had been reversed at short notice due to damage to the champions’ pitch following the hot weather this summer, and Rennes quickly took advantage of the switch, racing into a two-goal lead before half-time at Roazhon Park, courtesy of Sebastian Szymanski and Esteban Lepaul.
Torres, Spain’s World Cup hero this summer who signed for the French heavyweights from Barcelona this month, was then brought on at the break in a bid to try and get something from the tie.
