On February 22nd, 2023, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) set a new record for the most wins in a single season in Ligue 1 history with their 36th win against Rennes. The previous record was held by Lyon, who won 35 games during the 2018-19 season.
The victory over Rennes marked PSG's eighth consecutive win and brought them level with Monaco on top of the table with 74 points from 25 matches. This is a remarkable achievement for PSG, who have been one of the most dominant teams in French football in recent years.
The record-breaking performance came after PSG had already broken several other records this season. They have scored the most goals in a single campaign, with 100 goals in total, and they have conceded the fewest goals, with just 19 goals allowed.
The team has been led by coach Mauricio Pochettino, who has overseen a transformation of the club since he took over in January 2021. Under his leadership, PSG has become one of the most successful clubs in European football, winning numerous titles including the Champions League, Coupe de France, and Ligue 1.
Despite their success, PSG has faced criticism for their high transfer fees and the treatment of players, particularly when it comes to departures such as Neymar Jr. and Kylian Mbappe. However, these issues do not detract from the fact that PSG is one of the most exciting and talented teams in Europe.
Overall, PSG's 36-game unbeaten run in Ligue 1 is a testament to the quality of the squad and the coaching staff. It will be interesting to see how the team performs in the final stages of the season and whether they can maintain their dominance in the league.
