Paris Saint-Germain secured a 2-2 draw against Rennes in their French Ligue 1 opener, allowing the Spanish club to begin their title defense with a goalless draw. Ferran Torres, who came on as a substitute, scored twice to help his new team claim a share of the points. Rennes took the lead at the break through Sebastian Szymanski and Esteban Lepaul, who both scored for the visitors at Roazhon Park.
