Season summary

Lyon won their first ever French top-flight title. The title race came down to the final day of the season, with Lyon needing victory against fellow challengers Lens, who were one point ahead. A 3–1 victory secured Lyon's title win.[2] The club would go on to establish a period of dominance over Ligue 1 by winning a further six consecutive league titles. At the end of the season, Jacques Santini left to manage the France national team. Former Rennes manager Paul Le Guen was appointed as his replacement.
