Manchester United\u2019s last trip to the Parc des Princes was the greatest night of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer\u2019s managerial career. That night in Paris further enhanced the Norwegian\u2019s reputation amongst the Red Devils fanbase and a week later, he was awarded the permanent contract to manage Manchester United.<\/p>\n\n\n
The comeback win at the Parc des Princes was another glorious night in Manchester United<\/a>\u2019s history in the European Cup. While results and performances since then have been inconsistent and Solskjaer is under pressure this season, he will always the night Paris to remember even if his time at Old Trafford as a manager ends in tears.<\/p>\n\n\n That night in Paris was also another tale of Paris Saint- Germain<\/a>\u2019s mental fragility in the Champions League<\/a>. While they played the final last season, their ability to produce on the biggest stage of Europe\u2019s top club competition remains under the scanner.<\/p>\n\n\n The two sides have been placed in the most treacherous of Champions League groups this season, with RB Leipzig and Istanbul Basaksehir making up the rest of Group H.<\/p>\n\n\n The first game between PSG and Manchester United on Tuesday night is likely to set the tone for the rest of the group. <\/p>\n\n\n The Premier League giants are not the favourites to win in Paris but Solskjaer is aware that three points at the Parc des Princes could be a massive boost for his side who are facing a treacherous set of games in the next few weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n The desolate faces of the PSG stars were palpable when the final whistle blew in the second leg of the Round of 16 tie in March 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n It was a game they were not supposed to lose. The Parisians won the first leg 2-0 at Old Trafford and no team had ever come back from a two-goal deficit in the home leg to win a Champions League or European Cup tie.<\/p>\n\n\n Manchester United were also without their top two stars in Anthony Martial and Paul Pogba and arrived in Paris with a makeshift backline. They ended the game with teenagers Tahith Chong<\/a> and Mason Greenwood on the pitch.<\/p>\n\n\n But Marcus Rashford\u2019s injury-time goal meant Manchester United qualified for the quarter-finals at the expense of PSG. The shell-shocked expression of Neymar<\/a> on the sidelines mirrored the feeling inside the Parc des Princes. Kylian Mbappe looked distraught, life had left Thomas Tuchel\u2019s faces and the Manchester United players celebrated wildly with a delirious away section.<\/p>\n\n\n PSG dusted themselves off and made it to the Champions League final last season where they were beaten by Bayern Munich. The Parisians are the favourites to top Group H as well but the PSG players will remember the scenes against Manchester United.<\/p>\n\n\nA chance for PSG to bury the ghosts of their last meeting with Manchester United<\/u><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n
