Paris Saint-Germain secured its first league win in French football after Ferran Torres continued his goal-scoring form, netting the match's only goal in a 1-0 win over host Stade Brestois on Sunday.

Torres waited just five minutes to put PSG ahead, after the ball reached him in midfield and he passed it to João Neves, who then played it to Ousmane Dembélé, who back-heeled it to Torres, giving the Spanish forward the chance to fire a low shot into the net.
Torres raised his tally to six goals in five matches since joining the European champions, having also scored Spain's winning goal in the World Cup final against Argentina in New York this past July.
PSG had a modest start to the league campaign, collecting only two points from their first three matches.
Brest had a chance to leave the match with a point, but Kamory Doumbia's shot went wide of the far post after a defensive error by Nuno Mendes let him through on goal alone.
PSG goalkeeper Matvey Safonov also made a brilliant save to deny a fine header from Doumbia in the second half.
All of Brest's players wore shirts with the word "King" printed on the back, in tribute to coach Éric "King" Roy, who passed away from cancer at the age of 58 this past June.
