Paris Saint-Germain vs. Angers: Live stream, start time, TV channel ... (masslive.com)

Paris Saint-Germain has a chance to clinch the French Ligue 1 title on Wednesday afternoon, but they'll have to do it without Lionel Messi.

Lyon’s fans are generally unhappy with the players and how the club is being run. Lyon is eighth and only has an outside chance of qualifying for Europe next season, much to the disappointment of its fans. The win moved fourth-place Nice two points behind Rennes in third and a Champions League playoff spot. Left winger Armand Lauriente equalized in the 61st. Mbappe scored with a low shot to the left for his league-leading 21st goal. Having lost the title to Lille last season, PSG is 15 points clear of second-place Marseille with six games left.

PSG Has Turned Cause for Celebration Into Mere Consolation (Sports Illustrated)

PSG's big bet was geared toward becoming European champion, not extending its home dominance, and that's reflected in the relative apathy toward another ...

It’s not the only club to operate under that mantra, but when you put all of your Fabergé eggs in one basket, you must live with the ramifications when it doesn’t work out. That the Champions League final was relocated to Paris this year only twists the knife even more. Barring an exorbitantly expensive U-turn, the out-of-contract star is likely headed for Real Madrid on a free transfer this summer in another blow to PSG and one that leaves it suddenly reliant, for next year, anyway, on an aging Messi-Neymar duo. But all of that is besides the point. Eight will have come in the last 10 seasons, a product of the Qatari investment that has turned the club into one of Europe’s handful of domestic monopolizers. In 17 Karim Benzema–authored minutes, all of PSG’s primary targets for the season were lost, in the round of 16, no less, and all of its ghosts of European failure returned.

Mbappé fires PSG past Angers and towards title (LFP)

Paris Saint-Germain are one win away from claiming their 10th Ligue 1 Uber Eats title after beating Angers SCO 3-0. Kylian Mbappé, Sergio Ramos and ...

Achraf Hakimi touched the ball inside to Mbappé and the world's best young forward raced away from his marker and forced the opener - his 22nd goal of the season - beyond a helpless Mandrea (28'). Mohamed-Ali Cho nearly sucker-punched PSG towards the end of the half, finding space after Ramos had lunged in, but his shot brushed the outside of the post (37'), and the capital club carried a 2-0 lead into the break with Ramos heading home his second PSG goal from an Angel Di Maria cross (45'+2). His 22 goals make him the division's top scorer, while he has also provided the most assists with 14 - one more than PSG teammate Lionel Messi. The 23-year-old has had a direct hand in a goal every 63 minutes he has played. Angers initially started well as Paris tried to click into gear, and Sofiane Boufal had a pair of chances early on (5', 7') - the first forcing a fine save from Keylor Navas, the second fizzing past the Costa Rican's far post. Thilo Kehrer had thumped a header straight at Navas's opposite number Anthony Mandrea between those two attempts on their goal (6'), but Paris were nonetheless relieved to see the injured Boufal make way for Casimir Ninga soon after (13'). With Angers' talisman missing, PSG then pulled into the lead through theirs. Little wonder PSG are doing everything they can to extend his contract. PSG may have stuttered at times this season, but Mbappé's form has been simply incredible.

PARIS, April 20 (Reuters) - Paris St Germain are on the verge of a record-equalling 10th French title after goals by Kylian Mbappe, Sergio Ramos and ...

Backed by a raucous crowd, Jorge Sampaoli's side effectively wrapped it up in the 75th when Amine Harit found the back of the net with a low shot from Gerson's cutback. Pallois, however, made up for his mistake with a superb whipped cross that was cleared into the path of Marcus Coco, who found the back of the net with a fine volley one minute from the break. Marquinhos put the result beyond doubt in the 77th minute with a header from another perfect cross by Di Maria, who started in the absence of Messi.

Ligue 1: Marseille make PSG wait for 10th Ligue 1 title; Keylor ... (CBSSports.com)

Paris Saint-Germain must wait to be crowned Ligue 1 champions for a record-leveling 10th time despite their 3-0 win away at Angers SCO on Wednesday.

"I need to study many things," said 35-year-old Navas. "Gigi and I have a good relationship and there are no problems with him. The Costa Rica international may well be moving on from Parc des Princes this summer after losing his regular berth between the sticks. "I think there was a foul," added Pochettino on Michut's dismissal. "He touches the leg, but it was not on purpose. "I think we were very good," goalkeeper Keylor Navas told Canal+. "The team worked hard. Even a loss if OM fail to win away at Stade de Reims would be enough this weekend.

PSG on verge of record-equaling 10th title, Marseille wins (USA TODAY)

Paris Saint-Germain has all but sealed a record-equaling 10th French league crown with five rounds to spare by...

PSG only had two titles to Marseille's nine when cash-rich Qatari owners QSI bought PSG in 2011. Monaco is two points ahead of Nice and three ahead of seventh-place Lens, which beat Montpellier 2-0 at home to stay in the hunt for European places. Rennes stays third in the Champions League playoff place on goal difference ahead of fourth-place Strasbourg and fifth-place Monaco, which beat Nice 1-0 at home to leapfrog its local rival. Marseille strengthened its bid to finish second in the automatic Champions League spot as it now holds a six-point lead over Rennes and Strasbourg. Alsace-side Strasbourg beat Rennes 2-1 at home. PSG is set to move level with Saint-Etienne, which won its 10th title in 1981 and is fighting to stay up this season. PSG is 15 points ahead of second-place Marseille and has a vastly superior goal difference, but still still needs one point at home against Lens on Saturday to clinch the title.

Mauricio Pochettino's PSG can win Ligue 1 title on Saturday after ... (Eurosport.com)

Paris Saint-Germain's Ligue 1 title celebrations were put on hold despite sealing a comfortable 3-0 win away at Angers SCO at the Stade Raymond Kopa.

The referee goes to the monitor, and is told to reverse his initial call to award the penalty! The referee didn't initially see it, but after the review, the youngster is rightly sent off as Mauricio Pochettino shakes his head on the touchline. That's a blow for Angers just before the break. He opts to curl the ball towards the bottom corner, but it hits the outside of the right post before going out of play. Both assists came from crosses, and each time PSG had a corner, Di Maria's deliveries were on the money. The Argentine was outstanding this evening, with his deliveries in particular being a highlight.
