Paris St Germain recently managed to secure a third successive league title
Paris St Germain recently managed to secure a third successive league title after the win over on Sunday.
This is in addition to the two other trophies that they have lifted this season. Just when it seemed that winning the treble is more than satisfying for the players, defender Thiago Silva says that he wants to add a fourth in the form of the Coupe de France title. The 1-2 win over Montpelier handed PSG the league title. They will be taking on Auxerre in the final of this cup competition next week. If the current form is anything to go by, PSG are almost certainties to win the quadruple.
The league campaign came to an end after a 3-2 win over Reims. Edinson Cavani, who is reportedly in his last season at Paris, scored two more goals to show his worth in this victory. Auxerre have not managed to win since the first week of April. Hence, they are unlikely to go into the game with a lot of confidence. The disappointment of having been knocked out in the Champions League by Barcelona has propelled PSG to become even more cautious in the latter stages of the season. Laurent Blanc’s job looked under threat a few months ago but he has become the hot property in France once again.
"This season will remain with me for the rest of my career.We have won three trophies and we have one week left to finish on a high. If we continue with this mentality, we will keep on winning,” said Silva. "We have enjoyed an exceptional season. We want to win four trophies,” said midfielder Blaise Matuidi. Even though the likes of Lyon and Monaco ran PSG very close in the league title, the French club have managed to build an eight-point advantage towards the end.
