Ander Herrera did not gloat. "A very sweet and bitter taste to be champion this way," he tweeted. "I would have liked to been able to finish the great work that we had started and to be able to celebrate this title on the field with my teammates and our fans. "I would like to thank the club, my fantastic teammates and our supporters who have accompanied us both at the Parc des Princes and at each away game.
Finally I would like to dedicate this title to the people who are fighting in our city Paris, against this pandemic. THANK YOU." Herrera's eloquent reaction to the declaration of Paris Saint-Germain as champions was always going to be humble.
