PSG currently boast 20 wins, 10 draws, and just 1 defeat in their Ligue 1 campaign, showcasing their dominance in the domestic league.

Paris Saint-Germain are champions of France once again, despite a thrilling 3-3 draw against Le Havre, their closest challengers, Monaco, faltered with a 2-3 defeat to Lyon on Sunday.

This dramatic turn of events handed PSG their 12th Ligue 1 title and their third consecutive championship crown.

Enrique's First-Year Triumph

Manager Luis Enrique has enjoyed a successful debut season at the helm, steering the Parisians to an impressive record.

PSG currently boast 20 wins, 10 draws, and just 1 defeat in their Ligue 1 campaign, showcasing their dominance in the domestic league.

The celebrations in Paris might be brief, as the club sets its sights on achieving a historic treble.

Their quest for additional silverware continues with the Coupe de France final against Lyon scheduled for late May.

However, the ultimate prize remains the elusive Champions League trophy, a target that has eluded PSG's ambitious Qatari owners since their takeover in 2011.

Dortmund Stands in the Way

PSG will face a crucial hurdle in their Champions League journey when they take on Borussia Dortmund in the first leg of their semi-final clash on Wednesday.

Securing the Ligue 1 title provides a welcome boost of morale for the Parisians as they approach this critical European encounter.

Despite their financial muscle making them Ligue 1 favorites year after year, PSG's season hasn't been entirely smooth sailing. Off-field drama emerged when star player Kylian Mbappe announced his intention to leave the club, leading to a strained relationship with manager Enrique, who opted to limit his playing time.

With the Ligue 1 title secured, PSG can now focus on overcoming these challenges and writing another glorious chapter in their trophy hunt.

The clash against Dortmund will be a major test, but the Parisians are undoubtedly determined to conquer both domestic and European competitions this season.
