Since the arrival of QSI at the head of PSG in 2011, the capital club had only played for its European future twice on the last day of the group stage. The first was in Belgrade, on December 11, 2018. PSG was then second in Group C (8 pts) behind Naples (9) but ahead of Liverpool (6). By winning largely (4-1) while the Reds got the better of Napoli (1-0), the Parisians finished first before being eliminated by Manchester United in the round of 16 (2-0, 1- 3).
In 2020, a match against Basaksehir over two days interrupted by racist remarks
Two years later, on December 8, 2020, Manchester United, PSG and RB Leipzig had 9 points, but the Parisians benefited from a better goal difference over their two direct opponents. It was then enough for a draw against Istanbul Basaksehir or a victory for United or Leipzig: the victory of the Germans (3-2) had qualified PSG who had finished their match against the Turks the next day (5-1 ), although he had been interrupted during the first quarter of an hour due to racist remarks from the 4th referee towards Achille Webo, a member of the Istanbul staff. That year, PSG reached the semi-finals, eliminated by Manchester City (1-2, 0-2).
