David vs Goliaths: PSG Faces Lower-League Giant-Killers in Coupe de France

Paris St Germain is set to face a lower-league threat from Stade Briochin in the Coupe de France, despite their focus on an upcoming Champions League match against Liverpool. Briochin, a fourth-tier team, has already beaten Ligue 1 sides Nice and Le Havre, proving a formidable challenge.
