Paris Saint-Germain have clinched the Ligue 1 title with four games to spare after a 1-1 draw with Lens at the Parc des Princes.

It was a first league title for Mauricio Pochettino, after last season's second place finish behind Lille. However, with pressure mounting on the Argentine and coming to a head when PSG were knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid, it remains to be seen whether the trophy is enough to keep him in the French capital next season.

After a goalless first half, the game turned on a red card for Lens defender Kevin Danso. Still, it took a stunning strike from Lionel Messi to finally break the deadlock midway through the second half. Corentin Jean equalised for the 10 men, but it still wasn't enough to deny PSG the title.

Lionel Messi with the most important goal of the season among the top 5 leagues. Special!


Both PSG & Man United finished 2nd in their league last season

They signed Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo respectively

Lionel Messi has led PSG to reclaim their title while Ronaldo is improving Man United by leading them to the conference league.

the messi n cr7 we all.know normally do 50+ goals each season but this current sets av declined due to age...
if u say messi is finished, wat about cr7?? he is just getting started??
when u post to criticize messi, also criticize cr7 and when u post to hail ur man cr7, also gv accolades to messi
secondly, the messi we do see in Paris is playing an advance role behind neyma n mbappe, mainly as a midfielder or a playmaker n dts why his assist is more than goals but ur cr7 is more of a top9 in united n spend more time in d box n scores easily..
this PSG messi is more focused on winning titles, especially the UCL that goals, it seems ur cr7 is focused on goals n gat no worries abou

Oga Abeg rest for this your long epistle Messi is younger than Cristiano Ronaldo, even as worse as Manchester United team Ronaldo still scored hard trick, if Ronaldo is playing with world class players as PSG have believe me Ronaldo will have more goals

Supporters in Africa have registered mixed reactions after the 34-year-old was subjected to another chorus of boos at Parc des Princes

A section of fans across Africa have expressed mixed reactions after Paris Saint-Germain forward Lionel Messi was yet again booed by his own fans during their Ligue 1 fixture against Lens on Sunday.











This the kind of post you enjoy.anything to discredit Messi gives you so much joy.pained soul!!

The 34-year-old Argentine star was subjected to jeers from the fans despite scoring the only goal in the 68th minute that helped the Parisians register a 1-1 draw against Franck Haise’s side and clinch their 10th Ligue 1 title at Le Parc des Princes.

This was the second time Messi, who joined the club on a free transfer from Barcelona last summer, was being booed by the fans, the first being after PSG’s defeat to Real Madrid in the Champions League Round of 16 fixture, where he was targeted alongside Neymar.


Despite scoring against Lens, he was still jeered by a section of home fans during the post-match celebrations and the action by the supporters left manager Mauricio Pochettino terming it as “unbelievable.”

“The whistles against Messi? It’s unbelievable. These are hard things to accept. A difficult situation to imagine and which cannot be understood in my opinion,” Pochettino said.

African fans have also joined the debate, and below is how they reacted to the boos directed towards Messi, who has only managed four Ligue 1 goals so far in the 2021-22 campaign from 20 appearances, on the GOAL Africa Facebook Page.

“Messi is a finished product,” Adekola Olamilekan Hakeem started the discussion while Nat Han seconded him: “He is finished they need to kick him out.”

Mohau Mofokeng opined the Argentine is finished alongside his rival Cristiano Ronaldo of Manchester United: “Messi is finished the same as Ronaldo. Their time is up, they need to go back to their boyhood clubs and finish their careers there while Kwaku A. Boateng said Messi was only meant to play for Barcelona: “Messi is only good in Barca team and that’s it.”

Meanwhile, Bashar Ibrahim has supported the action by the fans saying they have a right to do so because Messi has failed to live up to expectations: “They have the right to do so, he’s among the greatest players in the world but what has he done to PSG?”

Umoru Ameh explained PSG fans are frustrated because they wanted to win the Champions League after signing Messi: “They want Champions League. Simple. The way they got kicked out is unacceptable while Ilesanmi Godwin wrote: “Messi was too hyped when he came to PSG....too much expectation.”

Elsewhere, Milton Almonte feels Messi was riding his success behind Barcelona and it was good he moved to PSG for people to judge him: “In many ways it’s good he went to PSG so everyone was able to see his true colours."

Auwalu Hussaini Tambuwal said: “Only those blinded by sentiments will praise Messi and his performance this season.

“Messi is only good in Barcelona team and that is it,” added Kwaku A. Boateng.

However, a section of other supporters have defended Messi with Kweku Efford maintaining the Argentine is the best player of all time: “Messi is the best of all time while Adam Safi'ullah said despite having his worst season, he still won a trophy with PSG: “In his worst season he still won a trophy.”

Chidozie Richard Mbonu also said: “It’s only destructive critics that will boo the greatest footballer of all times while Chinonso Patric Nosaco wondered why he was being booed: “It’s unbelievable to whistle a player, who is bigger than your club,” same as Afam Bu Ikechukwu Saha, who said: “Why are they booing our world’s best?”

Does Messi deserve boos from PSG fans? Please give us your thoughts in the comment box below.

forget all these ur online hate, Leo is placed above the rest players..
Leo winning dt copa n his 7th ballon award av placed the bar too high for Others to reach, lastly messi's trophies, awards n numbers means he gat nothing else to prove to any haters...
I know the post will make f.p as usual bcoz its attacking messi and I think it's better we just rename this sports section to "cr7 fans forum" or anti-messi section"

My friend go and sit down. You are so biased. Was he up to par this season? Did his performance earn his bogus wages? Despite winning the Ligue 1 as usual, he has contributed very little and far below expectation and you are here babbling.

Keep quiet my friendn. United fans have applauded CR7 unlike Messi that has been heavily criticized this season. Perhaps if Mbappe had been sold last summer then Messi's unclothedness would have been exposed. Countless times Ronaldo has won games for United this season whereas PSG has won 100% of their games without Messi and you're here typing sentimentally.

Hahahaha..... I remember when Ronaldo and Messi fans usually clash online, Ronaldo fans will tell Messi fans that Messi can only excel in Barca, but Messi fans would not accept.

Ronaldo has played actively in 3 different top Europe leagues and did well.

But you see, I feel Ronaldo fans were right after all cos since Messi left Barca he has been a shadow of himself.

On the other hand Ronaldo who is 2 year older than Messi is still waxing strong. Just imagine if Ronaldo had gone to Manchester City, by now he would have been among the nominees for next Balloon d'or.

In my opinion I think Ronaldo is actually the real GOAT!

Messi fans are getting it hot hot grin grin.... they started hating on Ronaldo for no reason , just because he was breaking records... they insulted the living daylight out of him when he joined Juventus... they all made fun of him joining Juventus , saying he joined a team that was easily winning champions league , despite being their best player.... now the hypocrites dint talk when he joined psg that is even guaranteed a league title more than Juventus... now they want to celebrate the same type of easy league that they condemned... but this time Messi flopped ... they all said Ronaldo was signed to win the CL... but messi nko?? Was he signed to win the league that they hv won 8 times in the last 10 yrs ... now they want to celebrate that mediocre league title... I am happy that PSG fans shut them down .... they think its barca .... Mbappe is their god , Messi is just another player that flopped after signing for a big team ...but they don't wanna accept... they think its easy to join different leagues and be on top of ur game .... shey he was scoring French teams easily in the champions league... but cud only do 4 goals... thats to show how dumb his fans are.... they said he will scatter EPl just because he scored EPL teams lots if goals for Barcelona in the CL as if ,if he joined EPL , he will go with the whole barca squad.... not considering that he wud b a different team entirely .... now what all Ronaldo fans predicted is happening life ... una think say e easy to scatter different leagues.... Ronaldo will always be a greater player than Messi.... messi is just a barca legend .... imagine our kids and grand kids decades later checking Google, they will see Ronaldo's name as top scorers in the EPL , the la liga and serie A, the champions league and the national teams... messi will only show la liga ... as we hv always said...posterity will judge ... not by balon dor .... the guy go join French league thinking that it was the easiest for him to decieve his deluded fans , but the league cast am grin grin

Somebody said Ronaldo scores easily.

Football is all about goals.

There is no such thing as scoring easily.

Messi has the highest number of penalty misses in football modern era.

Ronaldo performs in the toughest leagues.

Messi in Barcelona played with XAVI, INiesta, Ronaldinho, Neymar, Zlatan, Henry, Suarez.
After seeing them go, he chose a team that has prime Mbappe and Neymar and yet can’t contribute more.

Messi's goal scoring form at PSG has been poor.
Fact.
However, the bolded is NOT true.

We've seen Messi win the Man of the Tournament of every International Tournament he has played in - even before winning last year — outside Barcelona. I.e. with Argentina.

You also made a conjecture that CR7 would have succeeded at MCity. Possibly. But the same people said CR7 gave RM the UCL. Why didn't he achieve same at Juventus?

Would you also think Messi would have done well at ManCity too?
