Between PSG of Qatar and Manchester City of the United Arab Emirates, a geopolitical rivalry before being sporting

Wednesday's PSG-Manchester City is much more than the shock of the 7th day of the new version of the Champions League. If a real sporting issue surrounds the match, since the two teams are not yet certain of qualifying for the knockout phase of the Champions League (the English are 22nd with 8 points and the Parisians 25th, and therefore first eliminated, with 7 units), this meeting carries with it issues that go beyond the simple framework of the field.
