Lens have surprised me more than any other team this Ligue 1 season. They played very well all season and finished in second place, just one point behind PSG. That is, they could have been winners if it wasn't for a few upsetting losses. This season was a nervous one for PSG, but they still managed to win first place.
PSG was fortunate to bring the trophy to Parc de Princes Stadium, but it was not an easy game for the Parisians. This season, their main competitor was Lens, who was always one point closer to them on the table. Franck Haise, the manager of Lens, performed a fantastic job in challenging France's powerhouse for the crown; next season will be different. Lens had a incredible season despite not winning the league, but they provided stiff challenge for PSG, who were too relenting in their movements. It's past time for Ligue One clubs to start competing for the league crown; every diligent club deserves a trophy.
