In a closely contested match, the first chance came early when Monaco goalkeeper Philipp Kohn’s misplaced pass fell to Désiré Doué, whose shot struck the crossbar (9′). PSG created their best first-half opportunities through Ousmane Dembélé, but Kohn denied him twice in quick succession (21′). Monaco remained a threat with high pressing, forcing Gianluigi Donnarumma into a key save from Akliouche’s long-range effort (39′). Just before the break, Lee Kang-In’s powerful strike was tipped over by Kohn, leaving the first half goalless despite PSG finishing stronger.
The second half began with Monaco pressing harder, as Vanderson hit the post following Ben Seghir’s cross. The game opened up with both teams pushing for a breakthrough. Kohn made a stunning save on Hakimi’s close-range effort (73′) and again denied Gonçalo Ramos late on. However, PSG finally found the winner in injury time when Ousmane Dembélé netted his ninth goal of the season (90+2′), securing a dramatic 1-0 victory and PSG’s first title of the season.
