The atmosphere at the Parc des Princes was indeed unique yesterday during the late Ligue 1 match of the 36th day. Paris SG clinched their second consecutive French championship title after Monaco’s draw against Guingamp (1-1).
Although PSG lost 1-2 against Rennes, Blaise Matuidi expressed his joy after securing the title and emphasized that PSG had a remarkable season: “We are very happy, very happy to have won this championship. We had a great season. We would have liked to win against Rennes, but that doesn’t diminish the significance of the title. And we’re going to celebrate, we deserve it. We had a very successful season with three titles. We’re breaking records and that’s good. We knew we were champions at the end of the warm-up. It was a bit strange. The concentration waned a bit, but that’s understandable. It’s a reward for everything we’ve accomplished throughout the season. We have 83 points, just one point away from the record. It’s been a successful season with a slight disappointment in the Champions League, but we’ve made progress. We were not far from the semi-finals. The objectives were met.”
Despite the defeat against Stade Rennais, PSG’s achievement of winning the championship for the fourth time in the club’s history was indeed a cause for celebration.
