Paris Saint-Germain secured their fifth consecutive Ligue 1 title after defeating Lens 2–0 away from home, a result that confirmed the championship under head coach Luis Enrique. Although a draw would have been sufficient to clinch the title, PSG ensured full points with a composed victory at Lens.
After 33 matches, PSG lead the table with 76 points, while Lens sit second with 67 points from the same number of matches. With both sides having one match remaining, the nine-point gap is mathematically insurmountable, confirming PSG as champions.
Ligue 1 standings context
| Team | Matches | Points | Position | Title outcome |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| PSG | 33 | 76 | 1st | Champions |
| Lens | 33 | 67 | 2nd | Runners-up |
PSG’s victory was secured with goals in the 29th minute from winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and in the 93rd minute from Senegalese forward Ibrahim Mbaye. The result sealed the club’s 14th Ligue 1 title overall, extending their record as the most successful team in the competition’s history.
Of PSG’s 14 league titles, 12 have come within the last 14 years, reflecting their sustained domestic dominance since the club came under the ownership of Nasser Al-Khelaifi. The current run of five consecutive league titles places them second in the all-time list for consecutive Ligue 1 championships, behind Lyon’s seven straight titles between 2002 and 2008.
Since Luis Enrique took charge in 2023, this marks his third league title with PSG. The club had already strengthened their position earlier in the season, and a 1–0 victory over Brest in the previous week had placed them six points clear of Lens with two matches remaining. Given the points gap and goal difference advantage, the title had effectively been within reach before the decisive match at Lens.
After the match, PSG forward Ousmane Dembélé told beIN Sports that the team’s focus remained on upcoming fixtures, stating: “We came here to win. However, our main objective is to prepare for the final on 30 May. We still have another match on Sunday (against Paris FC). We will celebrate this title because we are now officially champions.”
Inter Milan’s domestic double
In Italy, Inter Milan completed a domestic double by winning the Coppa Italia after defeating Lazio 2–0 in Rome. The breakthrough came in the 14th minute when Lazio right-back Adam Marušić scored an own goal, giving Inter the lead. Lautaro Martínez added a second goal in the 35th minute to secure the trophy.
Inter had already confirmed their 21st Serie A title earlier in the season, making this their first campaign since 2010 in which they have won both the league and the national cup. In 2010, under José Mourinho, Inter achieved a historic treble, winning the UEFA Champions League, Serie A, and the domestic cup.

Both PSG and Inter conclude their domestic seasons with major silverware, with PSG maintaining their dominance in France and Inter achieving a significant double in Italy.
