Paris Derby Returns After 36 Years
After 36 years, two football teams from Paris, PSG and PFC, are playing against each other in a big match called a derby.
PSG is a very successful team with lots of trophies, while PFC is newer and not as successful.
They play in stadiums that are very close to each other.
PSG is usually the best team, but this time they are in second place.
PFC has a new owner who is rich and might help them become better.
There might be more matches like this in the future with another team called Red Star.
First capital city derby in French men's league football since 1990 between PSG and PFC.
PSG's Parc des Princes stadium is 44 meters away from PFC's Stade Jean-Bouin.
PSG is the defending French and European champion, currently in second place in the league.
PFC is struggling in the top tier, currently 14th in the 18-team league.
