Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) silenced doubts about life after Kylian Mbappé with a thrilling 4-1 victory over Le Havre in their Ligue 1 opener! 🎉 South Korea’s Lee Kang-in sparked the party early, scoring in just 3 minutes ⏱️—but the real drama came late as substitutes Ousmane Dembélé and Bradley Barcola sealed the deal with two goals in 60 seconds! 💥
Coach Luis Enrique played it bold, benching star forwards and fielding three teenagers 🚀, including 16-year-old debutant Ibrahim Mbaye.
