The European press praised Paris Saint-Germain after Luis Enrique's side defeated Manchester City 4-2, building an early 3-0 lead with goals from Désiré Doué, Ousmane Dembélé, and Vitinha before Maghnes Akliouche sealed the win against Erling Haaland's brace. Meanwhile, English media celebrated French forward Bradley Barcola after he scored his first career hat-trick and provided an assist in Liverpool's 6-3 victory over LASK Linz.

Elsewhere in European action, Aston Villa defeated Fenerbahçe 6-0 with a brace from Nicolas Jackson. In Spain, Real Madrid mounted a late comeback from 3-1 down in the 82nd minute to beat Roma 4-3 following an Antonio Rüdiger winner, though Vinicius faces a four-match La Liga suspension after a prior dismissal.
