Summary

Paris Saint-Germain briefly bounced back from crisis under Tomislav Ivić in 1988–89, fighting for the championship with Marseille.[5] [6] In May 1989, the two sides met for the title decider at the Stade Vélodrome.[6] [7] Played out amid an electric atmosphere, the title looked to be heading to league leaders Paris with the score tied at 0–0 and only a few seconds remaining.[7] But a 25-yard shot from Franck Sauzée surprised PSG goalkeeper Joël Bats as Marseille leapfrogged them at the top of the table to clinch the trophy.[7] [8]
