PSG win 5th Ligue 1 titles in last 6 years
The title was promised to Paris Saint-Germain all year long and they claimed it by trashing the last champions Monaco 7-1! The game concludes a fantastic domestic season from the Paris team.
PSG have the best offense and defense in the country. They have scored so far 103 goals, over 3 goals per match and only conceded 23 in 33 League games. They have the best two strikers in the League with Cavani and Neymar. This is a record season for the 7th title of the club’s history.
Here below are a few quotes from the team:
President Al-Khelaïfi:
“We are very happy with this performance. To win the title against Monaco, the defending champions, with such an emphatic scoreline, I am obviously very happy and very proud of our players. We still have one more trophy to try and win.
We play the Coupe de France semi-final this week against Caen. To finish the season in the best possible way, we hope to win the Coupe de France.”
Coach Emery
“I’m very happy tonight. The championship is the competition that demands the most consistency throughout the season. After the loss to Real Madrid, the team bounced back well. We showed our strength. We want to keep growing and continue writing our history, here in France and in Europe.
The players were very focused tonight. They gave it everything for 90 minutes, to keep scoring goals, keep defending… Now we turn attentions to Wednesday’s semi-final of the Coupe de France away to Caen.”
Captain Thiago Silva:
“It’s important to win the league tonight, in front of our supporters and our families. It’s magnificent tonight. In the first half, we played high intensity like the coach asked. That’s what we worked on all week. Then we controlled the game.
Our performance was almost perfect. We are happy because we have written another page into the history of our club and we are going to enjoy this moment.”
