Paris Saint-Germain were crowned the 2020 French Cup winners after beating Saint-Etienne 1-0 in the Friday’s final.
France President Emmanuel Macron was in the Stadium to watch the final.
Brazilian forward Neymar scored the only goal at the Stade de France in the 14th minute.
However, Paris Saint-Germain striker Kylian Mbappe was forced to leave the pitch in the 30th minute after suffering a suspected ankle injury following a tackle from Loic Perrin, who was red carded.
Mbappe’s injury is a big blow to Paris Saint-Germain, who are preparing to face Atalanta in the last 8 of the UEFA champions League next month.
Paris Saint-Germain, who also lost Thilo Kehrer to an injury, face Lyon in the Coupe de la Ligue final next Friday.
