The second semifinal of the Champions League took place at the Parc des Princes, where PSG defeated Arsenal and secured a spot in the final against Inter Milan on May 31. Goals from Peña and Hakimi unleashed the unbridled passion of the Parisian fans, who expressed themselves both in the stadium and on the streets.
On this occasion, PSG supporters were immersed in a celebratory atmosphere that transcended the stadium's limits. However, this is not the first time they have faced conflict situations with rival fans during the Champions League. Despite their local dominance and strong investments, the team has not performed notably at the international level, with the last final played in the 2019/20 season against Bayern Munich.
As the match unfolded, the Parc des Princes was filled with flares and flags in a spectacle of passion and euphoria. Outside the field, after the game, less positive scenes emerged when the celebrations triggered acts of vandalism in the streets of Paris. In particular, a video was shared on social media showing a car being set on fire near the Champs-Élysées, generating controversy and criticism among users.
The reaction on social media was swift, with numerous comments condemning the actions of PSG fans, questioning the violence and vandalism unleashed amid the celebrations. The incidents sparked a debate about the authorities' responsibility to contain such situations and ensure public safety.
