Paris Saint-Germain set to achieve historic landmark – Ligue 1 news
Since their formation on August 12, 1970, Ligue 1 side Paris Saint-Germain have become one of the most followed clubs in French football. The two-time champions of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 (1986 and 1994) are now promised of even more glory than ever before following their
takeover this summer.
The new owners from http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Qatar-c2986 have invested heavily in order to make the Ile club a force to be reckoned with for years to come and the PSG juggernaut is gaining momentum as the 2011/2012 Ligue 1 season wears on.
Week 14 of the Championelle will see the Parisian club play host to Nancy Lorraine at the Parc des Princes. The game against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Jean-c18112 Fernandez’s side indicates a landmark for the club as PSG will be looking to record their 600th top flight win.
Furthermore, PSG are on course to score their 2000th Ligue 1 goals. 40 years ago, in August 1971 it all started when former France international Jean-Claude Bras scored PSG’s first ever goal in Ligue 1. Remarkably, that first goal came against
Nancy Lorraine and now, a new breed of stars at PSG will be looking to set a new milestone of 2000 Ligue 1 goals at the expense of Nancy Lorraine who are rock bottom in the Ligue 1 standings.
During these intervening 40 years, PSG faithful have seen the likes of Dominique Rocheteau, Mustapha Dahleb, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Ginola, George Weah, Pauleta and Ronaldinho grace the sacred turf of Parc des Princes.
All of the aforementioned players are club legends but Oumar Sène and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ricardo-c30950 would understandably claim to have scored the most crucial goals in the club’s history. Those goals secured PSG Ligue 1 titles of 1986 and 1994.
Things are looking rosy at the Parc des Princes and despite reports suggesting that current coach Antoine Kombouare’s future is in doubt; the club is going in the right direction.

With PSG scoring league goals at the rate of two per game, it seems that the side from Paris are likely to reach the two respective landmarks which most certainly won’t be the last they achieve.
