There was a buoyant atmosphere inside the Parc des Princes as PSG looked to wrap up their 13th Ligue 1 title against Angers.
However, Les Noirs et Blancs nearly sprung an early surprise to dampen the hosts’ mood after Willian Pacho tripped Esteban Lepaul inside the hosts’ area, but referee Marc Bollengier dismissed any protests from the visitors for a penalty.
Inevitably, PSG seized control of possession and started to threaten Angers’ goal, but Les Parisiens lacked the same cutting edge that yielded 13 goals from their previous three games, as Gonçalo Ramos headed over the bar from six yards out.
Vitinha also came close to scoring his first Ligue 1 goal since early February, forcing Yahia Fofana into a fingertip save with a fierce long-range strike before half-time.
After failing to find the breakthrough in the opening 45 minutes, PSG wasted no time striking first for a 12th consecutive Ligue 1 home match when Doue volleyed in Khvicha Kvaratskhelia’s cross from close range.
A flurry of home chances followed, and Fabian Ruiz had the best opportunity to double the hosts’ advantage, striking low inside the area and drawing a reaction save from Fofana.
Luis Enrique’s PSG raced to the Ligue 1 title with six matches to spare, but the French giants still have plenty to play for elsewhere in the UEFA Champions League and Coupe de France.
At the opposite end of the table, Angers remain in relegation danger after losing five successive Ligue 1 matches without scoring for the first time since May 1980.
