Paris Saint-Germain secures fifth Ligue 1 title and reaches second straight Champions League final

Paris Saint-Germain confirmed its dominance in French football by winning the Ligue 1 championship for a fifth consecutive season, beating Lens 2‑0 to claim its 14th league crown overall. The victory came as the club also secured a place in a second consecutive UEFA Champions League final, where it will face Arsenal in Budapest on May 30, marking Arsenal’s first appearance at this stage in 20 years.

In the Champions League run, PSG displayed remarkable efficiency, notably scoring all five of its shots on target in a 5‑4 semi‑final win over Bayern Munich, and advancing 6‑5 on aggregate after a disciplined second leg. Ousmane Dembélé’s goal at 2:19 in the first leg was the third‑fastest in semi‑final history. The club’s successes have coincided with its partnership with betting operator 1xBet, which became the official betting partner in 2022 and has been highlighted as a factor in the team’s recent trophies and records.
