Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich they met on Tuesday evening in the UEFA Champions League semifinal round, in a match of great intensity and stakes, but also with a spectacular moment in the stands, made by the French supporters.
Before the kick-off, Parisian fans of Paris Saint-Germain prepared an impressive scenography at the Parc des Princes with a theme inspired by history, in which Napoleon Bonaparte was reinterpreted as a PSG player, symbolizing the “conquest of Europe”. The scenography covered the entire stadium and also included numerous pyrotechnic effects.

At the entrance of the teams, Peluza Auteuil unfurled a huge banner that covered the entire stand, with the message “À la conquête de l'Europe” (“The Conquest of Europe”).
The scenography had a historical theme, in which Napoleon Bonaparte was reinterpreted in the form of a PSG player. The picture was completed by French soldiers of the imperial era. The entire stadium was involved in the scenography, which included several paintings displayed one after the other.
The message “Let's conquer Europe!” also appeared in the second stand, in a moment synchronized with the rest of the scenography. Torches and fireworks completed the atmosphere at the Parc des Princes.
The moments were created by the ultras group Collectif Ultras Paris, known for their elaborate and recurring choreography at the team's important matches. PSG fans are recognized for such visual spectacles, especially in the Champions League or in the derby with Olympique de Marseille.
Total show in the stands, but risk of sanctions
The atmosphere was amplified by dozens of simultaneously lit torches and pyrotechnic effects, which completed the visual spectacle on the Parc des Princes. Although the moment was impressive, the use of pyrotechnic materials could bring another fine for the Parisian club from UEFA.
