Whatever happens, the women's section of PSG will achieve at least the second best attendance in its history.
Four years after the reception of FC Barcelona in front of 19,152 fans, a new event at the Parc des Princes with that, this Tuesday evening (9 pm) of Real Madrid, still in the Champions League.
Monday evening, more than 16,500 places had already found takers, not counting the invitations.
And the ticket office remains open until the kickoff of this clash between two prestigious names in European football.
With the hope of surpassing the record achieved against Barça.
Finding a Parc des Princes with the public was one of PSG's stated ambitions this season in order to continue its growth.
Just like the renewal of meetings at the Jean-Bouin stadium.
A few months after its first title of champion of France, the female team will be able to find its faithful followers of the Collective Ultras Paris (CUP), deprived last year of the two shocks against Lyon in this same stadium for health reasons.
From the last meeting with the public at the Park, only two players remain: Ashley Lawrence and Grace Geyoro.
“Playing at the Park is an honor,” confides the latter, captain this season.
We will try to have fun and give it to our supporters.
We have the chance to face Real Madrid, a team that everyone respects.
It also shows the evolution of women's football.

A new turning point in the development of the club's image
A football in full exposure this week since 30,000 people, at least, are expected Sunday evening at Groupama Stadium in Lyon for the first division poster between OL and PSG.
For the capital club, the week seems decisive in sporting terms but also marks a new turning point in the development of its image.
Real Madrid are not yet among the best teams in Europe.
Sportingly, the Parisiennes should logically gain the upper hand.
But the flashy name attracts and it is also thanks to the new formula of the Champions League, with its group stage as in the men.
"Everything is there to show what women's football and the very high level of the discipline are", rejoices coach Didier Ollé-Nicolle, who has not known the Parc des Princes since his stint at OGC Nice. in 2009-2010.

A privileged witness to the evolution of the club of the capital as a former left side and leader, Laure Boulleau evokes this return to Porte d'Auteuil on the official website of PSG: “It's really fantastic.
It's a bit like the girls' enclosure too.
Being in the changing rooms, going out and seeing this exceptional lawn, people in the stands… It resonates a little more within the Park and it is immediately more pleasant for everyone ”.
For those who cannot move in the 16th arrondissement of the capital, go to the video platform YouTube and the channel of the official broadcaster DAZN, holder of the rights to the Women's Champions League until 2025. For both first seasons, the broadcasting of matches is free and accessible to all people who have the YouTube application, from a phone, tablet, computer or connected television.
A beautiful poster that galvanizes the Parisians, victorious in all their games this season ... without taking a single goal.
But autumn is also synonymous with the first pivotal period for Didier Ollé-Nicolle's group: “PSG were champions.
We don't want it to be an accident.
We want to live great moments and that means results against great teams ”.
Real has at least the name.
