Following Paris Saint-Germain's win in the Champions League final, Paris police deployed 22,000 officers to manage the crowds, particularly around the Parc de Princes stadium where over 40,000 fans gathered to watch the match on giant screens. The celebrations were marred by violence, with police using teargas and making over 130 arrests as some fans engaged in skirmishes and property damage.
The Champs Élysées boulevard saw a large turnout of mostly peaceful supporters, estimated at 20,000, who celebrated with fireworks and flares.
This event is particularly significant given the violent incidents that occurred last year during PSG's first Champions League victory, which resulted in fatalities and numerous injuries, raising questions about public safety and police preparedness for future celebrations
