PSG reclaim top spot after 3-1 comeback win over Brest

PARIS : Paris St Germain moved back to the top of Ligue 1 with a 3-1 home win over Brest thanks to an Ousmane Dembele double and Fabian Ruiz's brilliant strike on Saturday.

Fabian and Dembele scored in an 80-second span after the break to help PSG reach a perfect 12 points from four games, two clear of Olympique de Marseille and AS Monaco, who both won earlier on Saturday.

Romain Del Castillo had put Brest in front with a penalty just before the half hour mark after a foul by Nuno Mendes on Ludovic Ajorque.

PSG equalised in the 42nd minute with a header from the unmarked Dembele off Marco Asensio's pinpoint cross before Fabian put the hosts ahead with a superb long-range effort in the 73rd.

Dembele sealed the points seconds later by scoring his second after pouncing on a loose ball after a counter-attack.
