French giants Paris Saint-Germain won the Coupe de la Ligue on Friday after beating Lyon on penalties. With that, PSG also completed their domestic quadruple. Attacking midfielder Pablo Sarabia won the tie for PSG with his decisive penalty in a 6-5 win against Lyon. PSG have now won the Couple de la Ligue for the record 9th time since the current format of the competition began in 1994. However, this will be PSG's last domestic quadruple as the French board has decided to discontinue the Coupe de la Ligue due to a drop in viewership and revenue. PSG will go down as the last club to win the tournament.
