Paris FC Shock PSG With Historic French Cup Exit
Summary: Paris FC upset holders PSG, winning 1-0 to eliminate them from the French Cup.
French football witnessed a major upset on Monday night as Paris FC knocked defending champions Paris Saint-Germain out of the Coupe de France, sealing a memorable 1–0 victory.
PSG entered the game as clear favourites and dominated huge periods of it, holding the ball and pressing forward with purpose. However, domination did not translate into goals. Paris FC remained structured in the back, absorbed pressure, and calmly waited for their opportunity.
That moment came in the second half, when Paris FC made the breakthrough with a quick attacking move. The goal startled the home fans and turned the momentum decisively in favour of the underdogs. From that point forward, Paris FC defended with discipline, blocking shots and frustrating PSG's attacks.
Despite late attempts to equalise, PSG were unable to break through. Paris FC's goalie performed calmly and confidently, making crucial stops as the time ticked down.
The result is a historic night for Paris FC, as they defeat their more recognised local rivals in a major cup tournament for the first time. PSG's early exit was a rare occurrence and a reminder of how cruel knockout football can be.
Paris FC now move into the next round of the French Cup, while PSG will turn their attention back to league and European commitments after a disappointing night at home.
