Despite finishing third in the championship, the 1994–95 season was still a success for Paris Saint-Germain. They reached their first UEFA Champions League semi-finals and, above all, clinched both the Coupe de France and Coupe de la Ligue titles for their maiden domestic cup double, granting them access to the 1995–96 edition of the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, a competition which had already seen Paris rise to the semi-finals in 1994.[52]
