That's the whistle. PSG are champions of France for the first time since 1994. Carlo Ancelotti and his bench have stormed the pitch. Incredible scenes.

David Beckham comes on for Jeremy Menez. The Englishman's first action is to take a corner. Sylvain Armand is also on for Lavezzi.

Menez is in to win the title... He blasts straight at the keeper. Still 1-0.
90+1'
Ibrahimovic hacked down right on the edge of the area. Four minutes of added time are signalled.

Clement Chantome comes on for Javier Pastore. I wonder if Pastore is still thinking about that chance. It would have sealed the title...
87'
Punched clear by Douchez but the ball is back with the team in white, Lyon.
86'
Jallet flies in to a challenge pretty recklessly. Lyon now have a chance to get the ball into the box from the left.
85'
More handbags in the middle of the park. Seems to be a regular affair with football these days. Nothing more than name calling and light shoving though.
84'
Grenier whips the ball in, it bounces around and Gonalons could be in here. Surely he was tugged to the floor? The referee waves it away. He looked mighty nervous signalling for no penalty though.
83'
Lyon have the ball at the back and start working in from left to right. Martial wins a free-kick on the right hand side.

Final Lyon change. Fares Bahlouli replaces Gomis, who has had the unenviable chance of leading the line tonight without much support.
81'
New boy Martial picks up the ball on the edge of the area but his shot is really tame and limps wide.
80'
Currently no, as Douchez takes an abnormally long time with a goal kick. Cunning from the PSG stopper.
79'
Lyon have just over 10 minutes to save this match. The pressure is on. The crowd responds. Can they get back into this?

That silly shot from Benzia is the kid's final contribution tonight as he's withdrawn for Anthony Martial.
76'
Jallet whips in a cross and Lavezzi attempts a wild bicycle kick. Hits his shin, bounces out for a throw. Good improvisation though.
75'
Fofana puts in Benzia, who has been a bit quiet of late. Surely he can't shoot from this tight angle? Well he can, but it goes wide.
74'
Lisandro Lopez dummies a pass which was aimed for him. It drifts all the way through to Douchez.
73'
Yet another free-kick to PSG comes to nothing. Lavezzi gets it wrong from the resulting play.
72'
Ibrahimovic keeps the ball in the centre, mesmerizing the Lyon players who stand off. He releases Lavezzi down the left but it comes to nothing.
