The record set against Bayern Munich (27,267 spectators) in the Champions League quarter-final second leg has already been broken. Saturday evening, the Parc des Princes will welcome even more fans for the semi-final return against Olympique Lyonnais (9 p.m.). The capital club has already issued more tickets than against the Germans in the previous round.
Record at the Park, therefore. But also a record in France to come for a women’s football match? There are still several days left at PSG to sell new tickets or invite new fans. And thus exceed the symbolic bar of 30,000 people. The record in France is held by OL for a match… against PSG in November 2019 with 30,661 spectators.
To be able to reach this sphere, the capital club sold the vast majority of its tickets but also played the game of invitations to its subscribers. Like FC Barcelona, which recently set two successive world records in the Champions League with more than 91,000 spectators in its Camp Nou for Champions League matches against Real Madrid and then Wolfsburg.
