“We will approach the group stage with optimism”declared Wednesday October 18 on franceinfo the president of Paris FC, Pierre Ferracci, after his women’s team achieved a feat by eliminating the double European champions Wolfsburg and reigning finalists, thanks to their victory in Germany (2- 0) in the return match of the women’s C1 play-offs.
“It’s a huge joy because in both matches, it’s well deserved”believes the president of the club, who salutes the work of coach Sandrine Soubeyrand, “who has led this team for four years with great brilliance”.
Now qualified for the group stage of the Champions League, Pierre Ferracci explains that his team “do not forbid anything” : “After Arsenal, semi-finalist last year, we eliminated last year’s finalist”. “We have fewer resources than the big clubs, but Paris FC is the Ligue 1 and Ligue 2 club which devotes the largest proportion of its budget to its women’s section, so we are rewarded today”.
