Paris Saint-Germain are French champions, after all. Similar to FC Bayern Munich, there is a mood lift at the end of a disappointing season. No more. One brilliant moment of Lionel Messi and one point is enough for the title.
Paris St. Germain has secured the French soccer championship for the tenth time and thus caught up with record champions AS St. Etienne. The team coached by Mauricio Pochettino can no longer be dislodged from the top of the Ligue 1 table after beating RC Lens 1-1 (0-0) at home.
Superstar Lionel Messi scored the opening goal (68th) for the Parisians in the Prinzenpark on submission by Neymar with a fantastic flick (68th) for the Parisians, who played in the majority from the 57th minute. Former Bundesliga professional Kevin Danso had seen the yellow and red card with the guests. Nevertheless, Corentin Jean (88th) scored to equalize. Thilo Kehrer was on the bench for the hosts the entire season. National team colleague Julian Draxler was absent due to a knee injury. Four matchdays are still to come.
PSG have won the league eight times since the 2012/13 season. Last year, Neymar and Co. surprisingly had to cede the championship to OSC Lille, and in 2016/17 AS Monaco broke the capital club’s winning streak. For Messi, who switched from FC Barcelona to the Seine last summer, it is the first title in the PSG shirt.
Similar to FC Bayern, who clinched their tenth consecutive title in the Bundesliga almost at the same time, winning the championship in Paris can at best temporarily brighten the mood after a season that has been disappointing by their own standards: Because the dream goal, winning the premier class , PSG will have to wait. The star ensemble had already failed in the round of 16 at Real Madrid this year. With Kylian Mbappé, Neymar, Messi, Real Madrid legend Sergio Ramos, numerous of the biggest stars in world football are gathered in Paris, but the sporting yield is disastrous. In the French Cup, it was also over in the round of 16 against OGC Nice.
