PSG crowned Ligue 1 champions as Lyon triumph over second-placed Monaco

Paris St Germain were crowned Ligue 1 champions for a record-extending 12th time on Sunday as second-placed Monaco lost 3-2 at Lyon.

The latest success for Luis Enrique’s side means Kylian Mbappe, whose contract expires in the summer, will depart the French capital with seven league titles.

Trailing by 12 points, only a win would do for Monaco to stay alive in the title race, and they took the lead after just 20 seconds through Wissam Ben Yedder.

But Lyon hit back through Alexandre Lacazette and Said Benrahma to turn the game around before the 25th minute.

Paris Saint-Germain are CHAMPIONS OF FRANCE for the 12th time in our history!
