Ferran Torres, the World Cup hero for Spain, scored a hat-trick in his Champions League debut for Paris Saint-Germain, marking a historic milestone for the club. The 26-year-old forward, who joined PSG from Barcelona on a five-year deal, became the first player in the club's history to achieve this feat in their first match of the European competition.
Torres' goal-scoring prowess was evident as he netted all three goals in the 6-1 victory over Slovan Bratislava. This historic performance follows Neymar and Kylian Mbappe, who scored during their Champions League debut against Celtic Glasgow in September 2017. Torres, known more for his roaming play than goal-scoring, had previously scored 65 goals in 207 appearances for Barcelona, including a career-high 21 goals in all competitions last season.
