PSG vs. Lens live score, updates, highlights & lineups as Messi ... (Sporting News)

PSG can beat Marseille to the French Ligue 1 title when Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbappe, Neymar & Co. face high-flying Lens at the Parc des Princes.

10th min.: PSG have a chance to swing a cross in from a free-kick near the penalty area on the left. The major news for PSG is the potential return to the starting XI of Neymar — he missed the Angers game through a ban — and Messi, sidelined for that match by an Achilles tendon injury. A foul is adjudged to have taken place as the delivery soars into the sky, and Lens are awarded a free-kick. The wideman shows his blistering pace to race clear on the right and enter the penalty area. Kimpembe shows fine timing a bravery to block the danger behind. His final touch on the run is perhaps a little heavy, giving him little choice but to shoot from a fairly acute angle, rather than cross for a teammate. Mbappe then almost finds space inside the penalty area with a delicate touch, but can't get a clear sight of goal. The seventh-placed side in Ligue 1 continue to pose a threat. Then Kimpembe tries a shot from outside the danger zone in a central area, and Danso blocks it away. 37th min.: A PSG corner from their left comes to nothing. PSG start on the front foot, perhaps suggesting that Pochettino has urged them to right the wrongs of the first half during the next 45 minutes. PSG have had 64 percent of the possession but as many shots on target as Lens: two.

PSG seal title despite last-ditch Lens equaliser (Eurosport.co.uk)

Despite only being held to a 1-1 draw by ten-men Lens at the Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain sealed a historic tenth Ligue 1 title in front of their ...

The ten men of Lens have equalised with minutes to play! Machado's low cross from the left evades all but Jean, who pops up at the far post to rifle home into the net! However, Leca comes off his line as Hakimi takes a heavy touch, and he smothers the ball away to put it out for a corner. Neymar plays it across to Messi just outside the area, before the Argentine curls an unstoppable effort from range into the top corner. The title as it stands is heading back to Paris! In the end, that lack of cutting edge may have cost them the win.

Lionel Messi stunner seals PSG Ligue 1 title as Mauricio Pochettino ... (Mirror.co.uk)

Paris Saint-Germain manager Mauricio Pochettino won the first league title of his career after his team drew against 10-man Lens at the Parc des Princes.

The hosts began to turn the screw with the extra man. Second-place Marseille and fourth-place Rennes are both in action on Sunday, as are Strasbourg in fifth, while Monaco moved into third spot with a 4-1 victory at Saint-Etienne on Saturday. As always, we are focussed on our job at the club." The former Tottenham Hotspur manager was linked with the Manchester United job, only to miss out when Erik ten Hag got the nod. However, this season has been far more comfortable, with the club racing clear of their closest challengers early on and sitting atop the table since matchday three. Corentin Jean equalised for the 10 men, but it still wasn't enough to deny PSG the title.

Messi on target as PSG claim title (LFP)

Paris Saint-Germain regained their Ligue 1 Uber Eats title after Lionel Messi fired them to a 1-0 win over RC Lens on Saturday night.

Messi turned a lot of heads in swapping Barcelona for the French capital at the start of the season. Only two of their previous league triumphs - in 1986 and 1994 - came before the Qatar Sports Investments era which began in 2011. Neymar slipped the ball to his former Barcelona teammate and the Argentine did the rest, curling an unstoppable effort beyond Leca for 1-0 (68'). Mbappé's tried to add gloss to the scoreline late on, but after nutmegging and then racing past Cheick Doucouré, he saw his penalty claim waved away (79'). Corentin Jean pulled one back late on (88') - enough for a 1-1 draw, but not enough to deny PSG the title.

European roundup: PSG seal Ligue 1 title with draw but many fans ... (The Guardian)

Paris Saint-Germain secured a record equalling 10th Ligue 1 title after a 1-1 draw against Lens but many fans had already left.

Leipzig had beaten them on Wednesday by the same score thanks to Emil Forsberg’s stoppage-time winner. Danso picked up a second yellow card for a rough tackle on Neymar in the 57th minute. Inter’s fourth successive league win moved them on to 72 points from 33 matches, one ahead of Milan. Roma stay fifth on 58 points. In Germany, Bayern Munich sealed their 10th Bundesliga title in succession by beating Borussia Dortmund 2-1. Fans from the Boulogne and Auteuil stands did not show their support once again despite the team having won their previous four games, scoring 16 goals during that run. PSG equalled the record set by Saint-Étienne, who won 10 top flight titles between 1957 and 1981.

PSG wrap up record-equalling 10th Ligue 1 title despite Lens draw (FRANCE 24)

PSG's hopes of wrapping up the title with a win were given a boost in the 57th minute, as Danso was shown a second yellow card for a tackle on Neymar. Mbappe almost broke the deadlock early in the second half after a quick free-kick by Marco Verratti, but his first effort was saved by Leca and his follow-up attempt was blocked on the line. This season will still be seen as a failure for PSG, though, after collapsing to a dramatic loss to Real Madrid in the Champions League last 16, after also suffering a surprise French Cup loss to Nice.

On Saturday, an inevitable league title was confirmed in a strangely non-celebratory atmosphere in Paris, with some 'ultras' leaving early in protest after the Champions League exit.

PSG talks over extending Kylian Mbappe's contract 'heading in a ... (Daily Mail)

Paris Saint-Germain remain positive that they can extend Kylian Mbappe's contract beyond the summer despite continued heavy interest from Real Madrid.

I would like to take him on vacation, take him home, keep him all the time. It may be taken once the objective of the title is reached, once the season is over.' The club would like him to be able to stay here for a long time. Selfishly, I would like to keep Kylian with me, of course. The report also adds that a sticking point in any deal centres on image rights. 'As a coach, the situation does not bother me,' Pochettino said in his pre-match press conference.

PSG chief Leonardo taunts Real Madrid over Kylian Mbappe's future (Mirror.co.uk)

Prolific forward Kylian Mbappe is out of contract at the end of the season and both Paris Saint-Germain and Real Madrid are desperate for the World Cup ...

The club would like him to be able to stay here for a long time. They've won the Champions League a record 13 times and will take on Manchester City at the Etihad on Tuesday for a place in this season's final. Yet Mbappe has failed to win the Champions League at PSG, losing to Real in the last 16 of this season's tournament. Yet Leonardo believes Real are a "little too sure" - as he aims to land a mental blow in the battle for Mbappe's heart. I think he is still in a reflection. "In Madrid, they’ve been convinced for three years that Kylian Mbappe would end up at Real Madrid," Leonardo told Sky Sport Italia after PSG claimed their 10th Ligue 1 title on Saturday evening.
