Just three seasons ago, Lille OSC finished 17th in the Ligue 1 table, just one point and one place above the relegation zone, and a whopping 55 points behind Paris Saint-Germain.
This season, they pipped PSG to the Ligue 1 title to be crowned as French champions for the fourth time.
In this short documentary, HITC Sevens takes an in-depth look at how they did it, Lille's footballing past, and the club's precarious future.

Burak Yılmaz is an unique striker and he had tremendous seasons at Turkey, he showed his class almost every season he played here. Too bad that he is discovered by Lille at the age of 35 but he demonstrated that he could lead a team to become champions in such a league. Turkish players pretty much written the fate of this season for Lille and I doubt if they can maintain this championship. Well deserved Lille!

Yeah but in 2012 there was still no real powerhouse in Ligue 1, Lyon was struggling financilly as they were building there new stadium and Paris was slowly building up but were nowhere near the team they became in the next couple of years.

I agree, I think Montpellier is closer to a fairy tail such as Leicester more than Lille 2011, Lille 2021 and Monaco of 2017. In terms of quality that Montpellier team is weaker than any of those squads. Giroud being the only player who went on to achieve something significant from the 2011 Montpellier. The city of Montpellier has one of the best Rugby teams in Europe, football comes 2nd in Montpellier which made it even more of a shock even for the locals who didn’t believe in the title until late that season.

What makes Leicester so amazing is how they have continued to hold form, competing for European spots each year. But the margin for error is so thin for lower budget clubs. A couple of wrong signings, and they tumble back down the standings because it is so difficult to continually find good players for the right price.

I wonder which CB pair Fernando Santos will field in the Euros. Ruben Dias has been arguably the best CB in the world this season, José Fonte has been absolutely amazing at Lille & Pepe has been the cornerstone of Portugal's defence for nearly a decade now, he also had a brilliant UCL campaign with Porto. Seems like a pretty sweet dilemma for the coach.

The weight of having to pay so much money on forwards salaries is showing. They have some really weak rotation options in midfield and defense (This guy called Baker looked like an amateur against city in the semifinals).

Great video! Please do one on Sporting Clube de Portugal winning the league this season too please, we hired a coach that didn't have FIFA lvl 4 coaching and didn't invest nowhere near as much as our rivals (Benfica invested 100M€ and they got no trohpies), we were the underdogs and won the league after 19 years! Also Sporting won the 23rd title, not the 19th.

congrats Lille for winning the title. It was an amazing run. As a Mexican fan following Mexican players abroad. Eugenio Pizzuto was signed this season. (I also see him in the championship photos in this video lol) While we hoped that he could debut during this season I definitely understand why he didnt. Couldnt afford to drop any points just to test out a young player like pizzuto. My questions to Lille fans is: Have you heard of Pizzuto before? How do you think he will fit in the team or think he will debut next season?
