PSG fails to win the French league after drawing with struggling Le Havre
PARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain failed to clinch the French league title at home when it had to come from two goals down to draw with struggling Le Havre 3-3 on Saturday.
It took a stoppage-time goal from Goncalo Ramos to force the draw. A win, as expected, would have given PSG a third straight French crown and record-extending 12th overall.
PSG extended its lead to 12 points over second-placed Monaco, which has four games left. PSG can still become champion this weekend if Monaco drops points against Lyon on Sunday.
“Even though mathematically it’s not done yet, I think we can say tonight that we are the champions,” PSG coach Luis Enrique told broadcaster Canal Plus through a translator.
Perhaps in mind of its Champions League semifinal against Borussia Dortmund on Wednesday, PSG coach Luis Enrique rotated his team, starting Kylian Mbappé on the bench.
