PSG crushes Villarreal to keep perfect run

Nov 4, 2026

VILLAREAL, Spain — Reigning champion Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) scored four times in the first 17 minutes on their way to a 6-0 demolition of Villarreal in Spain in the Champions League on Tuesday, as the French side shrugged off injuries to key players to maintain their perfect record in the competition this season. Joao Neves, Desire Doue, Senny Mayulu and Fabian Ruiz all struck at the Estadio de la Ceramica as PSG set a record for the fastest team to score four times in a match in Europe’s elite club competition. Ruiz added another early in the second half, and teenager David Boly completed a comprehensive demolition of the side that finished third in La Liga last season. PSG have probably lost star winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia for the rest of the campaign after he suffered a torn anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee in last month’s win over Barcelona, while Ousmane Dembele, captain Marquinhos and Nuno Mendes are also missing just now. Despite that, the Ligue 1 leaders made it 10 straight wins in all competitions, including four in the Champions League as they aim to lift the European Cup for a third season running. They are the only team to have maximum points after four matches in this year’s Champions League, and Luis Enrique’s prolific side have now scored 20 goals on that run. Like all matches in the Champions League on Tuesday, a minute’s silence was held prior to kickoff in tribute to Jesus de Miguel, the Tenerife player who died following a collision in a Spanish second-division match on Monday. Neves opened the scoring from close range in the ninth minute, and PSG netted three more goals in under eight minutes following that. Doue swept in as the hosts were punished for calamitous defending, and Villarreal collapsed under the intensity of PSG’s pressing as Mayulu made it 3-0.
