The French champions broke their winless run at Stade Brestois, with Torres' clinical finishing proving the difference in a hard-fought contest in Brittany. The Spanish international has quickly established himself as a key attacking threat since joining PSG, and his performance on Sunday underscored the club's faith in the former Barcelona player.
Torres' goal came as PSG looked to mount a serious challenge in the domestic league following a stuttering start to their campaign. The victory provides manager Luis Enrique's side with crucial momentum as they seek to reclaim their position among France's elite.
Brest, despite a competitive showing at home, were unable to capitalize on their chances and remain winless in their opening matches. The defeat leaves the Breton side searching for their first points of the season as the campaign continues to unfold.
PSG will hope to build on this success in their upcoming fixtures, with Torres' sharpness in front of goal suggesting the club possess the attacking firepower to challenge for honours this season.
