Amid the coronavirus crisis, Paris Saint Germain has been labelled as the Ligue 1 Champions for 2019-20 and thus put an end to the season. PSG topped the Ligue 1 table by being 12 points ahead of Marseille and the announcement came on Thursday. The announcement by the LFP comes after Prime Minister Edouard Philippe said on Tuesday that “professional sports leagues, notably football, cannot restart” because of the risks linked to the pandemic. But this has surely not gone down with the fans as they posted a few disappointed reactions. PSG Crowned Ligue 1 Champions as LFP Ends 2019-2020 Season Amid Coronavirus Crisis.
The fans took to social media and they are very disappointed with the same. The games were suspended from the second week of Match. The season was suspended with 10 games remaining in the season. PSG, therefore, ended the season on 2.52 points with OM on 2 and third-placed Stade Rennais on 1.79. Check out a few reactions of the same below:
Not valid. Incomplete season

Did not even guarantee with the trophy
Their points doesn't even guarantee them the trophy. This is absolutely bullshit!

Disgrace
Disgrace. Unacceptable and embarrassing . So many games to still play. No way you can crown champion based on the facts . This is truly a disgrace

Should have worked harder
Null and void
Was a fanciful dream
The losers collective
Their pants they would cream
At the thought of their rival
Denied what they're owed
Their pathetic pettiness
They gleefully showed
But sorry to say
It's dead in a ditch
Should've worked harder
Out there on the pitch
