PSG in style; Nancy says bye bye

It wasn't an ordinary game at the Parc des Princes. The fans knew it; the opponent knew it; we all knew it. So, when PSG players entered the field led by David Beckham wearing the captain armband, nobody was surprised. It was a day of celebration, as we could tell by the colorful hair of Paris' players. Red, white and blue on their heads, their beard or even their bald head like Christophe Jallet, Paris entered the field in champions.

They left it after a demonstration of football, showing that this team has a bright future ahead of it. Carlo Ancelotti had everything planned, from Sirigu's substitution at halftime to give the first professional cap to Alphonse Areola, to Lucas Moura's entrance, also at halftime to give the Brazilian some playing time for the last home game and, finally,to the standing ovation for Beckham who played there is last home game, ever.

Certainly one of the most emotional moments of the season, if not the most. In tears, Becks walked out of the field, under the applause of the entire stadium, PSG fans or not. Then, the English legend is comforted by his teammates. He hugged all of them, one by one before finally sitting down on the bench.

Paris played great soccer. Ibrahimovic scored twice, putting his total to 29 goals this season. Matuidi would score the third goal on what could be Beckham's last assist of all time.
Brest will score a goal, but the story was written. It was PSG's night, PSG's season.

Far from the glamour and fireworks of the Parc des Princes, Nancy fell on their home field against a good team of Bastia (1-2). Nancy, who conceded 57 goals this season, is the second worst defense of Ligue1 (behind Brest). The club played poorly and fought for weeks to keep its head above the water, but what was expected finally arrived with the 18th loss of the season.

We will have to wait until next week to see who, from Troyes, Sochaux, Evian and Ajaccio, will join Brest and Nancy in Ligue2 next season.
