How Paris Saint-Germain won its record-extending 14th Ligue 1 title
Paris Saint-Germain ended up with the title again, but at least it had a rival for most of the season this time.
PSG secured its fifth straight French league crown by beating closest chaser Lens 2-0 on Wednesday.
It finally ended the resistance of Lens, which held its own until the penultimate round despite having a much smaller squad and budget than PSG. It was a far different story than last season, when PSG PSG wrapped up the title with six games to spare.
The stellar play of winger Khvicha Kvaratskhelia and the decision-making of coach Luis Enrique were two of the main factors behind this latest title.
