The reaction of the Parc des Princes and its public was expected, four days after the debacle of too many PSG players in the Champions League on the lawn of Real Madrid.
She didn't disappoint, and she didn't lack a touch of humor either.
Two hours before kick-off, the first Ultras were already gathered in front of the entrance to the Auteuil bend with shopping bags filled with toilet paper.
The reason ?
“They got over it,” mocks a supporter.

When the PSG players appeared on the lawn, for the start of their warm-up at 12:30 p.m., the stadium's bays were still two-thirds empty.
This does not prevent the forces present from reserving a house bronca for the Parisians, even noisier than that reserved for the opponents of the day, and which the sound system of the Park was not enough to mask.
A few minutes earlier, the goalkeepers (Keylor Navas, holder this Sunday, Gianluigi Donnarumma and Alexandre Letellier) had already been greeted with loud whistles.
Only the stand reserved for children, located at the foot of the Auteuil bend, gives voice to the Rouge et Bleus.
Bronca at the announcement of the compositions and silence of the ultras
A quarter of an hour before kick-off, the start of the pre-match protocol is immediately accompanied by whistles from the Parisian public.
The "Here it is?"
” traditional launched by the announcer Michel Montana is not followed.
The announcement of the compositions was expected, rightly: all the Parisian names are whistled, more particularly those of Neymar, Messi and Pochettino.
Only Kylian Mbappé is applauded by the whole stadium.
The Auteuil bend, without the CUP at the kick-off, then launched its first song, and it did not leave much room for doubt: "Go get used to...".

At kick-off, while the CUP still shuns the Auteuil stand, whistles accompany each ball taken by the Parisians, in particular towards Neymar and Messi, the main targets of the anger of the supporters.
The Virage Auteuil even cheers a foul on Neymar in the second minute of play. Apart from whistling, the Virage is walled in a deafening silence.
We play the 8th minute when the first members of the CUP invest their seats in the lower stand of the bend, still in silence.
At the quarter of an hour of play, the first songs come down from the Auteuil bend: "Leaders resign", "Paris is us", "a team in Paris", "we supporters will always be there", "Freedom for the Ultras “, and others more flowery … Kylian Mbappé’s opener, acclaimed by the whole stadium, is quickly followed by a reaction from the turn: “We don’t give a damn.... ".
The first banner is deployed in the 35th minute, while Auteuil accompanies the Girondines passes in the Parisian half of the field with “Olé!
“: “Mbappé in Paris, Leonardo in the Pillory”.
