Paris Saint-Germain have been crowned Ligue 1 champions for a record 11th time after a 1-1 draw with Strasbourg. The Parisians knew a point would be enough to secure top spot for the second successive season, so despite Lionel Messi’s strike being cancelled out late on by Kevin Gameiro, they duly picked up another title.
