"Skipper Marquinhos and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia gave PSG a 2-0 interval lead and Nuno Mendes put the tie beyond Atalanta early in the second half before Gonçalo Ramos added a fourth in stoppage time. Bradley Barcola's first-half penalty was saved, while Luis Enrique's side missed a string of other chances despite the absence of injured pair Ousmane Dembélé and Désiré Doué. Luis Enrique's side, who thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 in Munich in May to be crowned European champions for the first time, sit top of Ligue 1 after four straight wins."
"The home side spurned the chance to make it 3-0 before half-time when Carnesecchi saved Barcola's poor penalty after Marquinhos had been clipped by Atalanta's United States national team midfielder Yunus Musah. But PSG extended their lead six minutes into the second half through Portugal left-back Mendes, who took Barcola's pass in his stride and found the bottom corner from a tight angle. Portugal striker Ramos completed the rout in time added on when he pounced on a tired back-pass to convert a neat low finish."
