United have coveted a spot in Europe’s elite club competition since their reformation in 2018. It tookjust five years for the club to earn a place inthe Champions League qualifying stages by finishing second in the WSL last season.

United were far from embarrassed here, in fact they had enough chances to have merited a win and were denied a legitimate goal that would have reduced the deficit to one on 71 minutes, but their profligacy proved costly.

They had come from behind to level in a Parc des Princes rocked by the bouncing PSG ultras, but the home team’s patience and Champions League experience gave them the edge over their challengers.
