Lens secured a 1-0 victory over Paris Saint-Germain to win the Trophee des Champions thanks to a goal from Florian Thauvin. However, the French governing body LFP has faced fierce criticism for staging the fixture at Lens' home stadium despite rules stipulating a neutral venue.
Florian Thauvin scored a decisive first-half goal as Lens pulled off a major upset to defeat Paris Saint-Germain 1-0 in the Trophée des Champions on Sunday. Despite going down to 10 men just before half-time, the hosts defended heroically to frustrate Luis Enrique’s side and secure the first piece of domestic silverware of the season in front of a passionate home crowd.
