Desire Doue scored in the 83rd minute as Paris Saint-Germain closed in on a fifth consecutive French title. The victory came days after PSG advanced to the Champions League final against Arsenal. Lille moved into third place while Lens secured a Champions League league-phase spot.
France 24Paris Saint-Germain took a commanding step toward another Ligue 1 title with a 1-0 victory over Brest on May 10 2026 at the Parc des Princes in Paris. Desire Doue, who started on the bench, scored the only goal in the 83rd minute from the edge of the box.
Doue was one of nine PSG players rested at kick-off after the team's Champions League semi-final second leg against Bayern Munich on the preceding Wednesday.
PSG edged Bayern Munich 6-5 on aggregate in that semi-final and will play Arsenal in the Champions League final later in May 2026. After the May 10 2026 match, PSG are six points clear of Lens with two games remaining and hold a superior goal difference. PSG will be officially crowned French champions for the fifth season running if they avoid defeat away to Lens on Wednesday.
Even if PSG lose their last two league matches and Lens win both of theirs, Lens would still need to overturn a 15-goal difference. PSG have won the Ligue 1 title 12 times in the last 14 years. Lens guaranteed a place in the league phase of next season's Champions League with a 1-0 win against Nantes on Friday.
Lens will play Nice in the French Cup final on May 22. Behind the top two, Lille climbed into third place with a 1-0 victory away at Monaco on Sunday. Denis Zakaria scored an own goal for Monaco, handing Lille all three points in the principality.
Lille have gone 13 Ligue 1 matches without losing. The result moved them above Lyon, who lost 2-1 away to Toulouse on Sunday. Corentin Tolisso scored for Lyon to cancel out Dayann Methalie's equalizer for Toulouse.
Warren Kamanzi scored the winning goal for the home side, and Toulouse held on after Aron Donnum was sent off. The top three teams in Ligue 1 qualify directly for the Champions League, while fourth place enters in the qualifying rounds.
