PSG clinch Ligue 1 title with victory in Lyon

Paris St Germain clinched their first championship in 19 years on Sunday with a 1-0 win at Olympique Lyon that put them seven points clear of second-placed Olympique Marseille in Ligue 1 with two games left.

Jeremy Menez scored the decisive goal in the 53rd minute for Carlo Ancelotti's side as the wealthy Qatari-backed club secured their third league title.

They were last crowned champions in 1994, eight years after winning their first title under Gerard Houllier.

"We've been living something outstanding, 19 years after the last title. Long live Paris!," centre back Mamadou Sakho, a Paris-born player, told TV broadcaster Canal Plus.
