Ligue 1 News

Beckham raring to get back in action.

After a five-day tour of China as a football ambassador, Paris Saint-Germain midfielder David Beckham has admitted he can't wait to return to Ligue 1 action.
The global Beckham brand took the opportunity of the international break to embark on a five-day tour of China in an ambassadorial role to promote football and children's education.
Back to business
"Honestly, I loved this trip to China, the warm welcome I received and the cities I visited," he said as he headed back to the French capital. "But I can't wait to put my suit aside and pull the football boots on again."
After making his full Ligue 1 debut in PSG's thrilling 2-2 draw in Saint-Etienne in Week 29, Beckham will be hoping to hit the ground running upon his return to France and make the squad for the capital club's Week 30 clash with Montpellier on Friday, where Carlo Ancelotti's men will have a chance to widen their five-point lead over Lyon and take another step towards clinching the Ligue 1 title.

Rémi still en Garde for the title.

Despite trailing leaders Paris Saint-Germain by five points,Lyon coach Rémi Garde continues to believe in his side's chances of taking out an eighth Ligue 1 title.
OL's recent run of two draws and a heavy 4-1 defeat have seen the seven-time French champions fall five points behind PSG after being neck-and-neck with the title favourites for several weeks, but Garde refuses to concede that the ultra-rich capital club are shoe-ins for the Lige 1 title this season.
