The very least Rennes deserved was a draw, Poch a lucky boy his side didn't lose that match.

Ive just watched Rennes try the same low curl into the bottom left corner about 45 times in that half.
Rennes should've won that. Shame they didn't do it. A loss would've put the cat amongst the piegons for the CL spot. Now PSG only need one draw from two to do it.
This and the St Etienne games have been very fortunate for PSG.
This and the St Etienne games have been very fortunate for PSG.
They need 4 points to secure the 2nd place and 3 points to secure the CL spot, don't they?
Well, yeah but if they get 3rd they'll more than likely beat whoever in qualifying as they'll be seeded.
Lucky PSG into the cup final thanks to a sudden death penalty shoot out win against mid table Montpellier.
Lille match PSG's result tonight they're crowned champions....
Actually very unlucky, they dominated the game and just couldn't finish. It could easily have been 6-2.
Don't they need 1 more point? Psg goal difference is better than Lille
They need to better PSG's result to win it tonight. Ligue 1 tiebreaker is GD first so they need 4 points out of their last two games, due to PSG's superior GD.
I think head-to-head match ups come up first before GD or am I imagining things again? In that case, Lille would win. It would take an absolute collapse bigger than PSG's league form for Lille to let it slip at this point.
Not really? There's still one more round of matches and PSG have the superior goal difference which I believe is used in Ligue 1.
So is there any chance of getting a river for the Lille game?
That red card in the PSG game was an absolute joke
Been 86 minutes of nothing this Lille game
Another fecking disappointing result. What the feck is going on in Europe tonight?
Lille might bottle it, even though you can't call it 100% a bottle job because they actually don't have the quality to win games easily, unlike PSG, so watching them struggling to score the first goal is expected.
Allez Bordeaux!!
For next time do Fanatiz free week trial, they have most games on there
Will be heartbreaking for Lille if they don't win the title. The pressure on them to win that final game will be huge.
Please Lille don’t feck this up
Yeah, but it might happen.The quality of their attacking players seems very underwhelming, so there is a chance they can't score in the last match, and give the title to PSG.
Monaco 2016-2017 was a much much better team, they scored 107 goals, this Lille has only scored 62 goals....
With Bernardo Silva, Mbappé, or Falcao on their side, Lille would have won the league already.
Yes and it finished that match.
Oh no, please God, don't let Lille blow this...
Really tight at the bottom, though the 2 relegation spots are decided. Very interesting with the play-off. 13th to 18th now reads:
Reims 42 pts -7 GD
Bordeaux 42 -15
Strasbourg 41 -9
Brest 41 -14
Lorient 41 -18
Nantes 40 -7
If Bordeaux had drawn today, they would have been on 40 points and -18 GD, so right in the shit. Huge win for them though. As it is, in the last game:
Reims host Bordeaux
Brest host PSG
Strasbourg host Lorient(!)
Nantes host Montpellier
-Reims can still finish 18th but only if they lose by 11+ goals to Bordeaux, Strasbourg and Lorient draw, and Brest and Nantes win. So they are safe.
-Bordeaux are guaranteed to be safe with a point against Reims, but should be ok anyway. They would finish 18th if they lose by more than 3 goals (with Bordeaux in 2021, you never know), Nantes win, Brest draw or win against PSG, and Lorient and Strasbourg draw.
-Strasbourg know they are safe with a point as they would stay ahead of Lorient.
-Brest are guaranteed to be safe with a win, or just need to match either Lorient or Nantes' result. If Nantes are winning and Strasbourg beat Lorient, it could come down to goal difference between Brest and Lorient. Brest have a 4 goal cushion but also play PSG. In this case, a Lorient loss would leave their goal difference at, at best, -19, so for Brest to drop below them, PSG would have to put 5+ goals past Brest (goals scored are very tight between the 2).
-Lorient are fine if Nantes lose. If Nantes draw, they need a point to know they are safe. If Nantes win, a point will still be enough for Lorient if Brest lose or Bordeaux lose by more than 3 goals.
Nantes know they're safe with a win. They are also safe with a draw, provided that any one of Lorient, Brest, or Strasbourg lose.

Who do Lille play next week?
Angers who are poor but safe
I can't see Lille as dropping the ball, they've lost 3 games all season and they've been really solid. As a PSG fan, I would be just fine with them winning it because PSG really didn't deserve it this season. However, if they do drop the last game, I won't feel bad for them, they would only have themselves to blame at that point, and PSG will be much more attentive next season to Ligue 1 if they were to lose it this season.
PSG have just beaten Monaco 2-0 and won Coupe de France, so another trophy for Pochettino this season. May win another one on Sunday, who knows 
They looked so comfortable, too. Even when they dropped back to defend their third, Monaco barely threatened them. PSG were just a class above.
Mbappe was really good from the bits I've seen.
Mbappé is the one who makes Ligue 1 look easy for PSG.
They would be struggling to get a CL spot without Mbappé and Neymar.

Well deserved, he's been incredible to watch this season. I see him as a future international for sure.
For sure, totally deserved. He's brilliant.
Come on Lille!
Lille lead
Very nice little assist from Swansea legend Renato Sanches.
Lille ahead. Now they have to hold on for 79 minutes, and we'll have an enormous upset in league 1.
Good goal. Perfect start.
