For the 176th meeting in a row, the Parc des Princes is, of course, sold out (around 48,000 spectators including 1,000 from Paris FC, but without ultras, banned from traveling by the club), but it is not necessarily the presence of Jean-Bouin’s tenant, located 44 m away, which pushed the spectators to fill the enclosure. “For now, it’s a match like any other. We will see in the years to come if Paris FC manages to maintain itself and grow,” assure Fabrice and Typhaine, accompanied by their daughters Maylis and Lilou.
