Two weeks on from the shocking terror attacks that stunned Paris and the world, the city's most famous football club - Paris St Germain - has produced two poignant videos about the place it calls home.

Some of the biggest names in sport including Lionel Messi, Christiano Ronaldo, David Beckham, Pete Sampras and Maria Sharapova have taken part in the short films entitled "Je Suis Paris" (I am Paris).

The first video is opened by current PSG coach Laurent Blanc and goes on to showcase a who's who of the sports world, all of whom show their solidarity with the French capital.

On the pitch, PSG managed to do the business too, beating Troyes 4-1 at the Parc de Princes in their first home game since the attacks occurred.
