Victor Player joins the UCL Off-Pitch event ahead of PSG x Manchester City game

Paris went underground for the Champions League, and Victor Player joined in!

Some Champions League nights live in the stadium. This one lived in an underground club. When Manchester City faced Paris Saint-Germain on 14 October, UEFA brought the city’s football community together for UCL Off Pitch Live, a night of culture and music, and Double Tap creator Victor Player, one of the three Off Pitch ambassadors, joined the crowd that made it happen.

Underground, in the best way

The night took over Essaim, an underground club in the city, and blended Paris’s creative culture with the excitement of the UCL. Rapper Tydi S performed live, while French-Moroccan DJ Ginger Boy, known for his afrobeats sound, headlined the night and put the venue’s underground heritage in the spotlight.

More than a watch party

Supporters could snap photos with the UCL trophy and personalise their own bespoke shirts, bringing the spirit of UEFA’s culture show Off Pitch to life.

Victor in the mix

As one of the three Off Pitch ambassadors, Victor was right at home. He got stuck into the activities, soaked up the music and the atmosphere, and spent the night with the fans who make nights like this what they are. Off Pitch is all about football culture, and he’s one of the faces of it.

A night in true Paris style

UCL Off Pitch Live showed off the best of France’s football culture and capped off one of the biggest games of the league phase in true Paris style. A big game, a big night, and Victor right in the middle of it.
