PSG challenges Botafogo on the night of Thursday to Friday (3:00 am) for its second match in the Club World Cup. A meeting that could bring the club to the capital closer to several significant records.
It will be necessary to watch late this Thursday evening, where to get up early Friday morning to follow the second match of Paris Saint-Germain in the club World Cup against Botafogo (3:00 am). An already decisive meeting for the men of Luis Enrique, who could almost ensure their qualification for the knockout stages in the event of success against the Brazilian club. But that's not all. Because the matches pass, and the European champions approach several significant records in the history of the club.
Indeed, the Parisians will play the 60th game of their season at Pink Bowl de Pasadena tonight. If Luis Enrique's men qualified in eighth, the 62nd game played on this occasion would mean that Paris would never have played so many games in one and the same exercise. Regarding victories, Marquinhos' teammates are 44, while the record set in 2015/16 under the orders of Laurent Blanc is 47. If the Red and Blue win their next four games and qualify in the semi-finals, they will therefore also drop this record.
This season, PSG has scored 156 goals in all competitions. A breathtaking figure, but which is not the highest total recorded by the champions of France on an exercise. This record returns to the Parisians of Unai Emery, who had scored 171 goals.
It would then take 16 goals to the French champions by the end of this club world cup to also drop this size record. It starts this evening against Botafogo.
