Wednesday, before the kick-off of Paris Saint-Germain – Atlético de Madrid in the Champions League (1-2), the Parisian ultras of the Auteuil corner deployed an incredible tarpaulin calling ” to liberate Palestine (Free Palestine) “. It was accompanied by a message: “ War on the ground, but peace in the world “. Two other banners were displayed by these Parisian supporters: on the conflict in Gaza (“ Is the life of a child in Gaza worth less than another? “) and on the genocide suffered in the east of the Democratic Republic of Congo (” A forgotten war that kills every day, free Congo “). This position – which was massively taken up on social networks – could have big consequences for PSG.
“ The dissemination or promotion of political messages by any means whatsoever as well as any other form of political action inside or in the immediate vicinity of the stadium are strictly prohibited before, during and after the match. “, states Article 44 of the UEFA safety and security regulations. The Parisian club – which claimed to have no knowledge of the plan to display such a message on Parisian – is therefore exposed to a sanction. In the past, Paris had not been condemned by UEFA, as when the ultras deployed banners in support of Palestine during PSG – AC Milan, in October 2023. Other clubs, such as Celtic Glasgow or the Olympique de Marseille, were punished.
