RC Lens Crowned Autumn Champions as PSG’s Nuno Mendes Praises Their Performance

RC Lens crowned autumn champions this weekend after the 17th round of Ligue 1, receiving accolades from PSG’s defender Nuno Mendes.

A commendable player, Nuno Mendes praised RC Lens for their title as autumn champions. Following a convincing 3-0 victory over Toulouse on Friday night, the Sang et Or finished the first half of the 2025-2026 season with one point more than Paris Saint-Germain. The Portuguese full-back acknowledged the performance of their rivals, stating, “It feels good to see other teams playing well and trying to win every match. This shows that French football is strong and competitive. I congratulate Lens and the other teams behind us who are applying pressure,” he said in an interview with Ligue 1+ after PSG’s derby win against Paris FC (2-1).

The Impressive Streak of RC Lens

To achieve the remarkable feat of finishing ahead of PSG, RC Lens had to maintain an extraordinary run. The northern French club has been unbeaten since mid-September, with their only loss occurring at Parc des Princes. The Sang et Or have since secured eight consecutive victories across all competitions. In Ligue 1, they have notched 13 wins in 17 matches, surpassing PSG’s tally of 12.
