But it was only this Friday, in their favorite room in Coubertin for the last match of the season, that the Parisians received the trophy under a shower of confetti.

They went to look for him after a last victory without suspense, fear or stake against Nîmes (47-27) by beating in the process a record of goals scored for this year.

“Scoring 47 goals is very strong” notes Thierry Omeyer, the general manager.

This evening crowns an almost perfect exercise for a Parisian formation which reigns supreme on the national scene: 29 matches, 27 victories, 1 draw and only one defeat in 2020-2021.

Since his arrival in 2018 to the succession of Noka Serdarusic, the Spanish coach Raul Gonzalez has led 83 matches on the bench in all national competitions (championship, Cups, etc.) combined.

He won… seventy-seven!

Hard to beat.

Mikkel Hansen's eighth title

If the object was not officially handed over last year due to the premature end of the season due to the Covid, Parisians experienced this same moment of happiness in 2013, 2015, 2016, 2017, 2018, and 2019. Mikkel Hansen is the only one to be on the platform each time. To stay in the numbers, this title is the 19th PSG trophy since 2012 and that it flies under the flag of Qatar: 8 French championship titles, 4 French Cups, 3 League Cups and 4 Champions Trophies. "I have a lot of emotion," reacts Dylan Nahi, who will join Kielce in Poland this summer. I'm from here, from Paris, I grew up with this club. So that the end is even more beautiful, we will try to make everyone even happier by going for the most beautiful of victories and the most beautiful of cups. "

Because yes, a trophy is missing one, the most beautiful, the one that matters more than the others: the Champions League. This Cup has never found its place in the window yet. PSG will be able to look for him in 10 days in Cologne. It will be necessary to beat the Dane of Aalborg in the semi-final then Barcelona or Nantes in the final 24 hours later to bring him home. Finally.
