PSG wins record tenth Ligue 1 title, as fans stage walkout

Paris St-Germain bagged a record-equalling 10th French title with four games to spare despite seeing out a 1-1 against 10-man Lens, as their fans took the celebration outside the stadium before stoppage time.

After a barren first half, Lionel Messi’s put the host in front, and even though a resilient Lens equalized late on, the shared points were enough to hand PSG, who needed just a point, the title, and gift, Mauricio Pochettino his first league triumph as a manager.

However, still very annoyed by their club’s elimination from the Champions League weeks back by Real Madrid, the fans stage a walkout 15 minutes before the final whistle, leaving the players with no one to do a lap of honour for afterward.
