Capital outfit save season with cup success
Guillaume Hoarau's extra-time strike earned Paris Saint Germain a 1-0 win over Monaco in the French Cup final.
PSG deserved the win after dominating the game, but they could not find a way past Monaco keeper Stephane Ruffier in 90 minutes, forcing the game into extra-time.
Mevlut Erding had the best chance in normal time when he saw his shot come back off the crossbar.
PSG grabbed the only goal of the game in stoppage time of the first-half of extra-time when Hoarau headed home from close-range after Ruffier could only parry Christophe Jallet's effort.
The win earns PSG a place in season's Europa League and helps salvage a disappointing season for the capital club.
