They qualified for the round of 16 of the Champions League earlier this week thanks to a large victory against Brest and they obtained very good results in the first round by beating Stuttgart, Manchester City, Girona and Salzburg. As is the case for us, PSG is at the top of its national championship and is experiencing a long series of invincibility ”analyzed Slot.
