Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) secured a narrow 1-0 victory against Girona in their UEFA Champions League opener, thanks to a late blunder by Girona's goalkeeper Paulo Gazzaniga. This match marked PSG's first Champions League campaign without a marquee player like Kylian Mbappé, who transferred to Real Madrid. Despite dominating possession and registering 26 total attempts, PSG struggled to convert their chances, with fans and coach Luis Enrique expressing frustration over the team's performance. Gazzaniga's error occurred in stoppage time as he let a low cross from Nuno Mendes slip through his legs, handing PSG the win. Girona manager Míchel Sanchez defended Gazzaniga, acknowledging that mistakes are part of the game but emphasizing the importance of attitude. Girona, making their Champions League debut, showed resilience throughout the match but were ultimately denied a historical point.
