Paris Saint-Germain's dream of completing a historic unbeaten campaign in Ligue 1 has come to a sudden halt. After 30 consecutive matches without defeat, Luis Enrique and his side were just three games away from matching the all-time record set by Nantes. But their ambitions were dashed by a determined and hungry OGC Nice, who stunned the reigning champions in the capital.

Enrique had previously spoken about his desire to leave an "unforgettable" season in the annals of French football — a season without a single league loss. That vision is now a thing of the past. Nice, chasing a UEFA Champions League spot, arrived in Paris with fire in their eyes and delivered a performance worthy of Europe’s elite.

What stings even more for PSG fans is that there was no squad rotation ahead of the crucial Champions League clash with Arsenal. The full-strength lineup fell short, meaning it’s a double blow: the end of an unbeaten run and potential fatigue heading into a massive European fixture.
