It’s a dream week for Paris Saint-Germain who are taking a big step towards a 12th French champion title. Sunday April 21, at the Parc des Princes, the Parisians crushed Olympique Lyonnais 4 goals to 1. After their brilliant qualification on Tuesday April 16 in Barcelona for the semi-finals of the Champions League, the euphoria has not subsided .
Supporting Paris Saint Germain has meant having stars in your eyes these last few days and the impression of being levitated listening to Mathieu and Alexis. “Incredible, very beautiful week, we couldn’t have dreamed of better, they delighted us all week”, they confide. “Dream week, the Champions League semi-finals were incredible, it was unexpected at the start of the season, and then, we beat Lyon 4-1, we will be able to sleep peacefully”, blurted out the two fans.
A 12th French champion title possible from Wednesday
Especially since Paris saved its stars on Sunday evening, Kylian MBappé and Ousmane Dembélé remained on the sidelines throughout the match and it was the usual replacements who did the job. Being able to count on everyone at all times is the great strength of this Paris Saint-Germain, according to captain Marquinhos. “It shows the value of the team above all, the qualities of the players who have returned. It also highlights the philosophy of the coach. Everyone knows what we have to do on the pitch, no matter which player is going being on the pitch is what makes the difference in an important season like this.” assures the player.
The hunt for trophies is now on, with perhaps a 12th French championship title from this Wednesday, April 24 with Paris traveling to Lorient. To definitively fold the championship, PSG will have to win, and hope that Monaco, traveling to Lille, does not win.
