Neither Paris F.C. There was, really, precious little to remember at all: no goals, few shots, little drama — a drab, rain-sodden stalemate between the French capital’s third-most successful soccer team and the country’s sleepiest giant. Last November, Paris F.C. There were a couple of exceptions: a nominal fee for fans supporting the visiting team, and market rates for those using hospitality suites. Everyone else, however, could come to the Stade Charléty — the compact stadium that Paris F.C.

The 29-year-old produced a stunning performance to crush the world 5,000 mark at the Paris Diamond League on Friday, beating world record-holder Letesenbet Gidey of Ethiopia in the process. Posting on Instagram before Friday's meet at Charlety Stadium that she hoped to run a "beautiful race," Kipyegon definitely met that goal and more. "I just wanted to improve on my (personal best), the world record was not my plan. It has been an amazing week for Kipyegon, who is the first Kenyan woman to hold the 5,000 record. At the Florence Diamond League meeting last Friday Kipyegon set a world record when she ran 3:49.11 to break the 1,500 mark of 3:50.07 set by Genzebe Dibaba of Ethiopia in 2015.

On a frigid Saturday evening earlier this year inside the Stade Charléty, a World War II-era stadium tucked alongside a highway, the stands are barely a quarter full.

On Sunday, another Paris team takes the field, and fans around the world tune in to ‌watch. ‌That yawning gulf between the teams is something that the owners of Paris F.C. They argue that the Paris region, with its population of more than 12 million, deserves an elite league rivalry, the kind that courses through European cities like London and Lisbon, Madrid and Milan.
