French Cup Champions PSG
Paris Saint-Germain have won the league title in 9 of the last 11 times. There have been several changes in the team since last season, but the league title fortunes have not changed. The League One trophy is going home to PSG. They would have tasted the title if they had not drawn 3-3 against La Havre in the last match. But, due to the draw, the festival got stuck.
However, the title was confirmed yesterday. Olympique Lyonnais beat Monaco 3-2. With that, PSG confirmed their 12th league title. It was their 10th league title in the last 12 years.
The domestic title, however, was certain for them. After the draw in the last match, PSG coach Luis Enrique said, "We are leading by 29 goals." So now I feel like a champion. Even if we don't get any more points, we are still champions.
PSG needed Monaco's defeat for the final ceremony at Leo's Field Park Olympics. But in 21 seconds, Ben Yedder's goal gave Monaco the lead. It took 22 minutes for Lin to return to parity. Former Arsenal star Alexandre Lacazette equalized. Four minutes later, Saeed Benrahma scored a goal.
Monaco equalized with Ben Yedder's second goal in the 66th minute. Even if it was a draw, PSG would have been worried. 6 minutes before the end of the game, Lino freed them from that thought. Malik Fofana scored the winning goal. In the end, the 3-2 goal match gave PSG fans a reason to celebrate.
PSG tops with 70 points in 31 matches in League One. Monaco is second with 58 points after playing the same match. There are three matches left between the two teams. There is no problem with PSG not getting any points from their remaining 3 matches. Because even if Monaco win their remaining 3 matches, they will not be able to top PSG's points.
