Ghana’s Rahim Ibrahim makes Champions League debut in PSG thrashing

Midfielder Rahim Ibrahim of Ghana made his UEFA Champions League debut for Slovan Bratislava in a 6-1 loss to defending champions Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday. Ibrahim, who joined Slovan from Accra Lions in 2020, started the match under coach Yaya Touré. This appearance marked his first Champions League outing since moving to Europe.

Ferran Torres scored a hat-trick as PSG secured a dominant victory. Despite the heavy defeat, Ibrahim played the full 60 minutes before being substituted. He contributed to the match with three duels won, two clearances made, three recoveries recorded, and created one chance. The Ghanaian midfielder will now look to capitalize on this experience as Slovan continue their league-phase campaign.

The result gave the French champions a strong start to their campaign, while Slovan faced a challenging opening night on the continental stage.
