PSG won the Ligue 1 title for the fifth consecutive season.

(NLĐO) – By defeating Lens 2-0 away at Bollaert-Delelis, PSG secured enough points to win the Ligue 1 title one round early and complete a domestic double this season.

PSG were completely outplayed by the home team Lens, their fierce rivals for the French league title this year, in terms of overall play. Paris Saint-Germain only managed eight shots throughout the match, with three on target – compared to Lens' 22 and eight.

The match of the season went to PSG, even though they didn't play better.

However, finishing ability is what really matters, alongside defensive capabilities and keeping a clean sheet, which is what differentiated the two teams. Goalkeeper Matvei Safonov's outstanding performance gave PSG confidence, and his teammates secured all three points thanks to goals from Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the 29th minute and Ibrahim Mbaye in the 90+3 minute.

PSG celebrates victory that decided the league title this season.

The 2-0 victory gives PSG 76 points, 9 points ahead of second-placed Lens with only one match remaining. This is PSG's fifth consecutive Ligue 1 title and their 14th domestic trophy in the club's history, extending a seemingly unbreakable record in French football.

Captain Marquinhos has lifted the championship trophy in 5 seasons.

Last season, PSG swept all three domestic titles – Ligue 1, the French Cup, and the French Super Cup – in addition to winning the Champions League for the first time. Coach Luis Enrique and his team are left disappointed after missing the chance to repeat this quadruple achievement, being eliminated in the round of 32 of the French Cup.

After winning the French Super Cup, PSG marched towards the Ligue 1 title and are now actively preparing for the Champions League final against Arsenal on May 30th. Since Luis Enrique was appointed head coach in 2023, PSG have been unrivaled in Ligue 1, winning the championship for three consecutive seasons.

14 league titles have made PSG a legend of Ligue 1.

Under Enrique, PSG pursued a youth-focused policy, with the average age of the starting lineup being just 24 years old, the lowest in the club's history. In this year's Ligue 1, PSG boasts the best attack with 73 goals scored by 18 players, averaging 2.22 goals per game. The Parisian club also has the best defense in the league with 18 clean sheets, and has set a record of 11 away wins.

Ousmane Dembele received the "Ligue 1 Player of the Year" award despite only starting 9 matches.

PSG currently boasts a total of 59 titles in its history, including 41 championships won since Qatar Sports Investments (QSI) took over the club in 2011.

The Parisian team has also won the Ligue 1 title 12 times in the last 15 seasons. However, PSG's five consecutive national championships are not a record in French football, as Lyon once won the Ligue 1 title seven times between 2001 and 2008!
