PSG won the league title and they had their victory parade today, but things took a turn for the worse as a riot kicked off.

Paris Saint-Germain were crowned Ligue 1 Champions for the first time in nearly twenty years, but their victory celebrations got a little bit out of hand as it degenerated into a riot.

It seems that the team arrived extremely late, and the crowd got more than a bit restless as they waited. The result was exactly what nobody wanted, a violent outburst from the PSG “fans”, and the conversation has already turned to whether or not the majority of those involved were actually supporters of the club or not.

Even though this video is in French, you can still see the scenes as there were confrontations between supporters and the riot police.
