Right now, Paris is a party! After qualifying for the semi-finals of the Champions League obtained on Catalan soil on Tuesday evening, PSG still has things to celebrate. Indeed, during the quarter-final first leg, a major event took a back seat after the home defeat against FC Barcelona (3-2, April 10): that evening, Marquinhos had just broken the record for the number of matches contested under the Parisian tunic with 436 units.
Whether before the first leg or the return leg, the Brazilian and the capital club did not wish to celebrate this historic record in order to remain completely focused on the upcoming European deadline. With qualification now confirmed for the semi-finals, which will take place on May 1 and 7, Paris will be able to prepare some festivities. They will take place on Sunday evening after the match against Olympique Lyonnais, for the 30th day of Ligue 1. In the company of his partners, his family and his loved ones, the PSG captain will certainly receive a jersey flocked with his number of matches.
As Paris did when Marco Verratti left at the start of the season, tribute videos from former teammates could be broadcast on the screens of the Parc des Princes. To attend, you must stay after the final whistle and not leave the aisles too quickly in order to avoid traffic jams on the road or crowds on public transport. The emotion should be there.
