    Corentin Jean (88 mins)

    10-man Lens crash the party!

    Well, sort of. PSG only need a point, but it's certainly going to put a dampener on things in Paris.

    Substitute Corentin Jean sticks away the equaliser for the visitors who have stuck to their task despite losing Kevin Danso.

    PSG 1-0 Lens

    Substitute Angel di Maria goes down in the penalty area. Will this be reviewed by the VAR?

    There are a couple of players down with injuries so we have a break in play...

    No penalty. On we go. PSG are minutes away from the title.

    The corner comes to nothing. Five minutes until half-time.

    Valencia win a corner through Goncalo Guedes.

    Real Betis 1-1 Valencia

    Pathetic.

    Claudio Bravo tries to shrug off Hugo Duro, maybe a nudge of a shoulder into his chest, as he tries to release the ball and Duro goes down like he's been punched in the face.

    Luckily Duro hasn't conned the referee.

    Hugo Duro, on loan from Getafe, has scored in three of his last four Copa del Rey games.

    We're approaching the final 10 minutes in Paris.

    Kylian Mbappe goes to ground in the box and protests but the referee waves play on.

    Hugo Duro (30 mins)

    Valencia's first chance - and they are level.

    Hugo Duro is played through by Ilaix Moriba's shot from halfway and chips the ball over the onrushing Claudio Bravo.

    PSG 1-0 Lens

    Well, if nothing else happens in this match, at least PSG have that Lionel Messi strike to mark their record-equalling 10th title triumph. A fitting way to wrap it up.

    Still, there's around 15 minutes left to play before any celebrations can commence.

    So close to disaster for Valencia. Giorgi Mamardashvili is given too much to do with a powerful backpass but he just deals with it before Borja Iglesias can pounce, without fouling the striker.

    Real Betis 1-0 Valencia

    Valencia are racking up the fouls here. Three Betis players are fouled in one move as play goes on and on before Ilaix Moriba eventually stops them.

  16. Postpublished at 21:26 British Summer Time 23 April 2022

    Real Betis 1-0 Valencia

    Valencia keeper Giorgi Mamardashvili comes out right to the edge of his area to catch a ball into the mixer.

    It's nearly all Betis so far.

    Lionel Messi (68 mins)

    Pure Messi magic!!

    It doesn't even look like half a chance for Lionel Messi as PSG continue to work the ball around the outskirts of the Lens penalty area, but the Argentine hits an exquisite first-time shot from range which curls into the left corner.

    Just stunning.

    Ah, that's a good opportunity for Sergio Ramos but the defender hits a first-time shot over as a pass from the right falls just slightly behind him.

    A decent chance for Betis as Nabil Fekir whips in a cross from the left which Juanmi heads miles wide. He got all his angles wrong there.

    PSG 0-0 Lens

    Lots of passing by PSG, lots of chasing by Lens. Still no way through for the hosts.
