1997, PSG 5-0 Steaua Bucharest

For the start of the 1997/1998 season, Paris Saint-Germain faces Steaua Bucharest in the preliminary round of the Champions League.

Problem, Paris loses the first leg 3-0 by default. The reason? PSG fielded a suspended player, Laurent Fournier.

At the Parc des Princes, the Parisians must win by at least four goals to play in the Champions League. Mission accomplished, as PSG overturns Bucharest with a 5-0 victory, thanks in part to a hat-trick from Rai!


PSG 4-1 Real Madrid, 1993

UEFA Cup quarter-final second leg. Beaten 3-1 by Real Madrid in the first leg, PSG hosts the Spanish club in a fiery Parc des Princes!

Paris leads 3-0 and is thus virtually qualified in the 92nd minute... until Iván Zamorano scores for Madrid. 3-1, heading to extra time.

Six minutes after the start of extra time, Antoine Kombouaré delivers a now legendary header: GOAL for Paris! PSG wins 4-1 and qualifies.


PSG 3-0 Liverpool, 1997

We had to conclude this piece with this match...

European Cup Winners' Cup semi-final first leg, the continental trophy won a year earlier by PSG.

The Parisians host Liverpool and win 3-0 against the Reds of Steve McManaman and Robbie Fowler. A major European victory in PSG's history...

Will we do it again this Tuesday evening at Anfield?
