“Writing this kind of history has been our goal since the beginning of the season. Now it’s time to celebrate! I feel a strong connection between the team and the fans. I believe we truly deserved all of this. It’s hard to play at this level, but we knew how to handle the pressure,” were Luis Enrique’s first words after leading Paris Saint-Germain to the top of European football.They sound like the usual statements made after such triumphs—but they truly carry weight. Probably no one in the world believed in this team more than he did. And it is incredibly hard to play football at this level while managing the pressure that has burdened PSG for years. But he succeeded.’She is always here’: Enrique’s touching words about late daughterPSG has often crumbled under that pressure—falling apart when it mattered most and leaving fans with epic traumas against Barcelona, Chelsea, Manchester United, Real Madrid… This season, they didn’t break. Even though they easily could have.They had a poor start in the group stage, losing away to Arsenal and then taking just one point from home matches against PSV Eindhoven and Atletico Madrid.

PSG was just 30 minutes from being knocked out! City, led by Erling Haaland, were 2–0 up at Parc des Princes by the 53rd minute—a result that would have eliminated PSG before the final round.It’s crazy how Manchester City losing sparked this PSG super team into winning a treble. pic.twitter.com/UU1haDQYD1— Danis (@DanisThecityfan) May 31, 2025 But they believed. Just like they had all season. Within five minutes, they equalized through Barcola and Dembele, and then sealed the win with goals from Neves and Ramos to beat City 4–2. In the final round, they confirmed their place with a convincing victory in Stuttgart.Had City held on and won that night, we wouldn’t be talking about PSG as European champions today. But that’s football. Just as they’ve been eliminated in the past in the most painful ways, this season they survived.UCL: Now put THIS in the Louvre! PSG’s first-ever and biggest win in Champions League final history!Written off after an undeserved home defeat to Liverpool, they responded at Anfield and advanced on penalties. In the quarterfinals, Donnarumma saved them in the second leg at Villa Park. And in the semifinals, there were no such worries against Arsenal.In fact, their easiest match of the entire season was the final.##NAJAVA_MECA_8957778##
