Paris Saint-Germain have once again asserted their dominance in French football, securing a record-extending 13th Ligue 1 title, their fourth consecutive, with a comfortable 1-0 victory over Angers on Saturday. This triumph, achieved with six matches still remaining in the season, underscores their utterly dominant campaign. �
The Parisian giants have enjoyed an imperious run, wrapping up the league title in early April. Their victory over Angers also keeps their impressive unbeaten season alive, boasting a record of 23 wins and five draws in their 28 league matches played so far. �
PSG captain Marquinhos, who has been with the club since 2013, has etched his name in Ligue 1 history, becoming the only player to ever win ten league titles. An elated Marquinhos shared his joy with beIN Sports, saying, “It’s crazy, I’m really happy. Staying with a top team for so long is a real challenge. The titles will go down in history. Our ambition is to win everything.”
He further emphasized the importance of the league title, recalling past disappointments: “It hurts when you don’t win the French championship, it’s happened to me twice. The team deserves to win. It’s in our DNA to give everything on the pitch, to have an aggressive philosophy, to get our shirts wet at every match, no matter who our opponents are. Ever since I was a kid, I’ve played in teams with that DNA.”
Under the guidance of Luis Enrique, PSG has garnered significant praise this season for their strategic shift away from relying solely on superstar names like Lionel Messi, Neymar, and Kylian Mbappe. Instead, the team has been built around a core of talented young stars and French players, who have showcased a stunning brand of football. Players like Vitinha, Bradley Barcola, and Desire Doue have shone brightly, while Ousmane Dembele has enjoyed arguably the best season of his illustrious career. This latest Ligue 1 title reaffirms PSG’s status as the undisputed kings of French football.
