PSG SMASH BREST AS THEY LINE UP TOUGH LAST-16 TEST

Paris St-Germain became the first team to have seven different scorers in a Champions League match as they dumped out Brest 10-0 on aggregate, to set up a mouth-watering meeting in the next round against Barcelona or Liverpool.
Going into the Parc des Prince clash, the tie was not in doubt after Ousmane Dembele's double helped them to a 3-0 first-leg victory, but though the club's top scorer failed to find the net in the second leg, a glut of his team-mates did.
Bradley Barcola classily took Fabian Ruiz's long ball in his stride before scoring the opener after 20 minutes, and then Khvicha Kvaratskhelia slid home his first Champions League goal for the hosts six minutes before the break.
Vitinha's low curling effort just before the hour mark led Luis Enrique to start making substitution,s but there was no relief for Brest as after Nuno Mendes tapped home, substitutes Desire Doue, Goncalo Ramos and Senny Mayulu all hit the back of the net.
Life will surely get harder for PSG next up, as they wait on Friday's draw to see if they face the English or Spanish league leaders, but Enrique's side could not have asked for a bigger confidence boost to take into the last 16.
