PSG Bounces Back with a 3-0 Victory Over Nantes, Kvaratskhelia Shines

Paris, April 2026 – Just days after a disappointing home defeat to Lyon, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) made a resounding comeback against Nantes, securing a commanding 3-0 victory. The star of the show was none other than Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, who dazzled in a standout performance.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia shines brightly

With the pressure mounting from Lens just one point behind, PSG knew they had to perform. The match against struggling Nantes provided the perfect opportunity to do so. PSG quickly took control, and it wasn’t long before Nantes’ defense faltered. At the 13th minute mark, a penalty was awarded, and **Kvaratskhelia confidently converted**, marking the first blow. Known for his Champions League prowess, the Georgian showed his critics what he could do in the domestic league by scoring a second goal at the 50th minute. After a skillful assist from Ousmane Dembélé, Kvaratskhelia maneuvered past defenders to finalize his impressive double. His third attempt, however, was thwarted by the crossbar.

PSG extends their lead

Before Kvaratskhelia’s second goal, **Désiré Doué also found the back of the net**. Riding on the momentum from his recent international performance, Doué delivered a powerful strike in the 37th minute, thanks to a well-placed pass from Achraf Hakimi. Despite several other attempts by Dembélé and Hakimi, the scoreline remained 3-0. Fabian Ruiz also had his moment but was unlucky to hit the post.

Preparing for European challenges

For Nantes, the game offered little to celebrate aside from a disallowed goal by Leroux and a well-saved free-kick by Safonov. PSG, on the other hand, used this match as a strategic rehearsal for their upcoming Champions League semi-final against Bayern. Coach Luis Enrique took the opportunity to rotate his squad, giving time to players like Dro Fernandez and Beraldo while also fielding young talents Mbaye and Malulu.

With this decisive win, PSG not only regained their confidence but also showcased their depth and readiness for the challenges ahead, proving that they are a force to be reckoned with both domestically and in Europe.
