Mauro Icardi.
That didn't take long!
In comes the cross from Abdou Diallo and Mauro Icardi leaps in the air and heads in the opener.
The referee puts his hand to his ear and there's a lengthy check.
It looks like the Argentine is half a yard offside, but the referee points to the centre circle and the goal is given.
It's a dream start for PSG!

We're under way at Parc des Princes as Paris Saint Germain seek their first home win of the season, with Lionel Messi watching on from the stands.
PSG v Strasbourg (20:00 BST)
Earlier in Ligue 1, Lille were swept aside by the manager who led them to last season's title as Christophe Galtier's Nice enjoyed a big win at Stade Pierre Mauroy.
The defending champions went behind after just 55 seconds when Denmark's Kasper Dolberg turned in from close range.
Nice doubled their lead inside five minutes through a long-range Hicham Boudaoui effort.
Amine Gouiri added a third from the penalty spot, before Dolberg headed in his second to complete the victory and inflict Lille's heaviest home league defeat since 2017.

On Messi, PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino said: "We will take it step by step, get to know each other and have him feel fit and comfortable so that he is able to make his debut when he is fully fit.
"The priority is that he is OK, feels good, and when he is in the best condition, he can play.
"I want to have the best players, like any coach. Everyone knows that Messi is one of the best in the world."
Six-time Ballon d'Or winner Messi has never played first-team football for a club other than Barcelona.
