The 1997-98 campaign delivered vital cup silverware for Les Parisiens as Paris Saint-Germain secured the Coupe de France trophy, defeating Lens in the Final. Leading the charge was their predatory Italian striker Marco Simone, whose 13 Division 1 goals proved decisive in a campaign built on moments of cup magic. It was a turbulent, yet ultimately glorious year that marked a vital cup triumph during a period of league transition and remains a defining chapter in the club's prestigious cup history.
