Paris Saint-Germain 1981–82 football season
The 1981–82 season was Paris Saint-Germain 's 12th season in existence after they parted ways with Paris FC.[1] PSG played their home league games at the Parc des Princes in Paris , registering an average attendance of 24,216 spectators per match.[1] [3] The club was presided by Francis Borelli and the team was coached by Georges Peyroche .[1] Dominique Bathenay was the team captain.[4]
Summary
Georges Peyroche made a few tweaks to the team in 1981–82 with the signings of Raymond Domenech , Michel N'Gom , Daniel Sanchez but above all Yugoslav star Ivica Šurjak . The Parisians mounted a challenge for a European spot via the Division 1 , but fell short towards the end of the season with a 7th-place finish .[5] They secured, however, another shot at it by reaching the club's first French Cup final .[6] [7] There were nearly 150,000 requests for only 46,160 seats available at the Parc des Princes to see PSG go up against the great Saint-Étienne of Michel Platini , who was playing his last match in France before leaving for Juventus .[8] [9]
Nambatingue Toko opened the scoring for PSG in the 58th minute following a good cross from Ivica Šurjak . Saint-Étienne reacted and Platini equalized in the 78th minute to send the game to extra-time. Platini then doubled his personal account, giving the Greens the lead in the 99th minute.[8] [10] The Parc des Princes faithful no longer believed in their team when Dominique Rocheteau , after yet another assist from Šurjak, scored an unexpected equalizer against his former team in the last seconds of the match.[8] [9]
PSG fans then invaded the field in joy, while club president Francis Borelli kneeled and kissed the lawn of the Parc.[8] [10] Following an interruption of 30 minutes, the penalty shootout sealed PSG's coronation.[9] [10] Dominique Baratelli stopped Saint-Étienne's last attempt and Jean-Marc Pilorget scored the winning penalty for the capital side.[8] [10] Twelve years into existence, PSG had won their first major title in their home stadium.[9] [10] This success opened PSG the doors to Europe for the first time, qualifying for next season's European Cup Winners' Cup .[11] [12]
