Paris Saint-Germain’s quest for a historic treble this season came to an abrupt end on Tuesday night after a shock elimination by city rivals Paris FC in the Coupe de France.
The Ligue 1 giants were stunned as Paris FC delivered a disciplined and determined performance to dump PSG out of the competition, sending waves of disbelief through French football. The result marks one of the biggest upsets in recent Coupe de France history, given the gulf in status and resources between both sides.
PSG, packed with star power and widely tipped as favourites to lift the domestic cup, struggled to break down a resolute Paris FC defence. Despite enjoying spells of possession and creating chances, the Parisians failed to assert their dominance when it mattered most.
For Paris FC, the victory represents a landmark moment and a statement of intent, as they continue their fairytale run in the competition. The win also reignites debate about PSG’s consistency in knockout tournaments, even with their domestic dominance.
With this defeat, PSG’s hopes of securing a treble this season are officially over, shifting focus back to their remaining domestic and continental ambitions.
