PSG's domestic streak without a loss came to an end today in spectacular fashion, as Ligue 1's worst team in the 2018-19 campaign managed to eliminated the French giants from the Coupe de la Ligue.
Les Parisiens were not able to hold on to their 1-0 lead as they saw EAG come from behind with two late penalties. Marcus Thuram went from zero to hero in this clash, as he converted a late PK to see Guingamp earn the shocking result.
This loss represents a change of guard in the Coupe de la Ligue, as PSG had won this tournament for five straight seasons.
