On Sunday, as the newly-crowned league champion played Monaco, PSG honored Notre Dame and its firefighters by releasing a special edition jersey where all sales will go to fire-fighting charities.

Prior to kick-off Parc des Princes displayed a video where all players paid tribue to the historic Cathedral, who suffered a tragic fire earlier on Monday, destroying the 850-year-old iconic spire and roof before the firefighters were able to control the disastrous blaze the following morning.

As the players warmed up, fans also released a giant banner. 

PSG won the league on Sunday after second place Lille failed to beat Toulouse earlier in the day. It's the club's sixth league title in the last seven years.
