PSG Crowned as Champions of France After the Season Was Ended Prematurely Due to Coronavirus



Paris Saint-Germain have been crowned as the champions of France despite the season being ended prematurely due to the coronavirus pandemic, according to reports.



France's top-flight season was called to a halt on Tuesday, but L'Equipe are now reporting that PSG have been awarded the title for the 2019-20 campaign.



The report from France goes on to mention that any potential relegations are yet to be confirmed, with Nimes, Amiens and Toulouse currently occupying the three bottom places. It is understood that UEFA placings and relegations are the next to be ratified.




The season's last round of fixtures were played on March 7 and 8, and the final standings see PSG sitting 12 points clear of second-placed Marseille with a game in hand.



Marseille, Rennes and Lille are second, third and fourth respectively in the Ligue 1 table as it stands, but no decisions have yet been made with regards to European qualification for next season's Champions League and Europa League competitions.
