Paris Saint-Germain claimed their 14th French league title on Wednesday, sealing a fifth straight Ligue 1 crown with a 2-0 win away to closest challengers Lens. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia opened the scoring for Luis Enrique’s side before substitute Ibrahim Mbaye wrapped up the victory, as PSG continued their march toward a potential historic treble-winning season.
14 titles now, but honestly, winning Ligue 1 almost feels routine for PSG. The real test will be if they can finally get over the hump in the Champions League this year.
Kvaratskhelia has been such a smart signing—he just fits right into their attack. That goal against Lens was clinical, and Mbaye coming off the bench to seal it shows the depth.
Five in a row is impressive, but let’s be real: the league is way too top-heavy. Until other clubs can compete financially, PSG will keep running away with it every season.
Luis Enrique deserves a lot of credit for keeping the squad focused despite all the off-field drama. If they can pull off the treble, this will go down as one of their best campaigns.
I was at the Lens stadium for this match—the atmosphere was electric even after the loss. PSG were just too efficient; they knew exactly when to strike and then shut it down.
