About the Le Classique
The rivalry between PSG and Marseille dates to the early 1970s. Marseille's dominance of French football in the 1980s and early 1990s (including five consecutive league titles) was ended by PSG's Qatari-backed transformation from 2011. The bad blood between the cities of Paris and Marseille runs deep culturally and politically, making this the most combustible fixture in French sport.
