PSG Claim A Record-extending 13th Ligue 1 Title, Beat Angers 1-0

Paris Saint-Germain clinched a record-extending 13th Ligue 1 title and their fourth straight championship on Saturday with a 1-0 victory over Angers, securing the crown with six games to spare.

It was a commanding campaign for the reigning champions, who sealed their triumph early in April.

The win against Angers also preserved PSG’s hopes of completing the season unbeaten, boasting 23 wins and five draws from 28 matches.

On this dramatic showdown, PSG captain Marquinhos, who joined the club in 2013, became the only player in history to win 10 Ligue 1 titles.

“It hurts when you don’t win the French championship, and 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.”

“It’s crazy, and 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,” the 30-year-old Brazilian told beIN Sports.
