Paris Saint-Germain rolled into the last 16 of the Champions League with a massive victory over Brest.

Having won 3-0 in the first leg of their knockout play-off, PSG again exhibited their superiority over Stade Brestois, defeating them 7-0 at Parc des Prinx.

The French giants took a 2-0 lead in the first half, courtesy of Bradley Barcola and Khvicha Kvaratslhelia. Barcola opened the lead with a near-post effort before Kvaratskhelia tapped in PSG’s second of the evening before the break.

Vitinha made it 3-0, with a curled effort into the right corner from 18 yards just before the hour mark.

PSG then rained goals on their fellow French side with less than half-hour minutes remaining.

Desire Doue came from the bench to add the fourth, after being teed up by Goncalo Ramos.

Nuno Mendes then sent in Achraf Hakimi’s teasing ball for a fifth to make the contest a massacre.

Ramos also found the net to make it 6-0, with a deft finish before teenager Senny Mayulu rounded off the scoring with four minutes left.

Brest endured a miserable night in the French capital, as they have lost all four encounter against PSG this season. They have also conceded 18 goals in the process.

Meanwhile, Luis Enrique’s side will now face Liverpool or Barcelona with the draw due to take place on Friday.
