Four Goals Conceded in the Champions League, PSG Hadn’t Experienced That Since 2001

Paris Saint-Germain suffered a debacle at St James’ Park, losing 1-4 to Newcastle during the second matchday of the UEFA Champions League group stage. A significant defeat that is far from insignificant.

PSG conceded four goals in the Champions League, a scoreline that is raising eyebrows and will undoubtedly lead to internal discussions.

The Parisians were thoroughly outplayed by their opponents and conceded four goals in a group stage match of the Champions League for the first time since March 7, 2001, when they were defeated by Deportivo La Coruña (3-4). This marks an exceptionally long period without such a defeat.
