Paris St-Germain secured their third consecutive Ligue 1 title with a hard-fought 2-1 away win over Montpellier.
France midfielder Blaise Matuidi put PSG ahead in the 17th minute before Argentina striker Ezequiel Lavezzi doubled the lead eight minutes later.
Montpellier staged a strong fightback as forward Anthony Mounier pulled one back for the home side shortly before half-time.
