Paris Saint-Germain closed a dominant 2025 with a controlled 4-0 Coupe de France victory over Vendee Fontenay, a result that capped a record 50th win across all competitions for the year and underlined
a campaign that included a first Champions League title, six trophies in total and standout individual honours for Ousmane Dembele.
Desire Doue struck the opener in the round of 64 tie, before a penalty from Dembele and two goals from Goncalo Ramos confirmed the holders' safe progress, while Paris Saint-Germain also extended a scoring record by registering at least four goals in a single match for the 22nd time in 2025, more than any other club in Europe's top five leagues.
The 50 victories achieved by PSG in 2025 set a new benchmark for Ligue 1 clubs in a calendar year, and the side coached by Luis Enrique added weight to that statistic with silverware, lifting six trophies, including the Champions League in May, and also reaching the final of the revamped Club World Cup during the summer schedule.
Doue, who also found the net against Inter in the Champions League, reflected on the wider significance of the year after the Fontenay win and gave a succinct verdict when speaking with Bein Sports, stating: "This year? It's magnificent, historic, it's magnificent," a description that matched both the volume of trophies and the series of record-breaking performances.
Statistics from Opta highlighted the scale of PSG's attacking output across 2025, with the French champions recording more matches featuring at least four goals than any side from Europe's leading leagues, as shown below in data from all competitions.

The broader impact of 2025 extended to individual recognition, with Dembele collecting the 2025 Ballon d'Or for performances with PSG in the previous season, adding a personal honour to the club success that saw Luis Enrique claim a Champions League triumph at the first attempt and then oversee a run to the new-look Club World Cup final.
Doue outlined the collective pride within the squad, stressing the sense of achievement that came with the Champions League breakthrough and multiple trophies, saying: "We've made history in world football and for the club, with our first Champions League title and six trophies in a single calendar year. It's magnificent. We're very happy, very proud of our season. We thank the staff and the fans who are always there for us. Congratulations also to all my teammates and the management. "
PSG 2025 cup performance and Luis Enrique reaction
Reflecting on the Coupe de France outing against lower-division opponents, Luis Enrique stressed both performance levels and the mental approach required, explaining: "We played a very good match. It's always tough to play against a lower-division team. You have to be focused the whole match. We played a very good match," with the head coach also highlighting the benefit for the attacking players who added to their goal tallies.
The PSG head coach expanded on the value of goals for the forwards and underlined a desire for constant progress, stating: "When the forwards score goals, it's positive for them. We're happy. We're looking to improve in every match. We did what we wanted. A well-deserved vacation? Very well deserved! I hope to have a vacation without a press conference, no journalists. Just family and friends. "
Attention now turns to Ligue 1 duties on January 4, when PSG face city rivals Paris FC while sitting one point behind Lens in second place, and the champions carry that pursuit of improvement into 2026 having combined domestic consistency, European success, scoring records and individual awards across a densely packed but rewarding 2025 campaign.
