Paris St Germain's dominance in the domestic cup competitions continued on Saturday after they captured a record 11th French Cup title by beating Angers 1-0 thanks to an injury-time own goal. The capital side, who owed their victory to Issa Cissokho's own goal a minute into added time in an otherwise dull final, claimed the title for the third year running and have now won 32 consecutive League Cup and French Cup games.
Their last defeat in a cup match came in the 2013-14 season when they were knocked out by Montpellier in the last 32 of the French Cup. The result should ease the pressure on coach Unai Emery after his side flopped in the Champions League and lost their Ligue 1 title to Monaco.
"It was not an easy season but PSG have what it takes to get a major trophy soon," said PSG sporting director Patrick Kluivert. PSG, who now own one more French Cup title than Marseille, got off to a solid start but Alexandre Letellier denied Edinson Cavani and Marco Verrati early on.
