"Vitinha capitalized on an error from Chelsea goalkeeper Filip Jørgensen to put PSG ahead for the third time on the night in the 74th minute. And substitute Khvicha Kvaratskhelia then added two more, including a sensational first goal, in the dying minutes to put PSG firmly in control ahead of the second leg at Chelsea next week."
"In a repeat of last year's Club World Cup final, won by Chelsea, Bradley Barcola and Ousmane Dembélé had twice put PSG in front. But Malo Gusto and Enzo Fernández equalised on each occasion for the visitors before Jorgensen's awful misjudgement helped PSG take control."
"Jorgensen's pass was cut out easily by Barcola, Kvaratskhelia squared it and Vitinha chipped the stranded goalkeeper. Kvaratskhelia curled in a brilliant fourth soon after then tapped in a fifth in stoppage time as the holders twisted the knife."

Substitute Khvicha Kvaratskhelia then scored twice in quick succession, including a brilliant curled finish, to secure PSG's commanding position ahead of the second leg at Chelsea.
