Paris Saint-Germain beat Villarreal 6-0 and joined Olympique Lyonnais as the longest unbeaten run for a French club in the Champions League.
On Wednesday evening, at Villarreal's stadium, Paris Saint-Germain delivered a dazzling performance, winning 6-0. This victory, the club's biggest in the competition's history, allowed the capital club to equal a record held by Olympique Lyonnais: the longest unbeaten run for a French club in the Champions League.
Luis Enrique's men dominated the match from start to finish, scoring six goals without conceding a single one. This success extends PSG's unbeaten run to 14 consecutive matches in the elite competition, a feat not achieved by a French club since Lyon between 2004 and 2006.
The evening was also marked by several individual and collective records. PSG notably recorded their biggest away win in the Champions League, surpassing their previous 5-0 triumph at Anderlecht in 2013. Furthermore, the team reached the 20-goal mark in the group stage, a first in their history.
Beyond the numbers, this performance confirms the rise of the Parisian collective under Luis Enrique. The Spanish coach has instilled a positive dynamic based on attacking play and remarkable defensive solidity. Supporters can legitimately harbour high ambitions for the rest of the competition.
This unbeaten run now places PSG among the most feared teams in Europe. If the club maintains this level of play, they could well surpass this historic record and establish themselves among the favourites for the ultimate title.
