Zlatan's last Ligue 1 game with PSG was a special production. He still has one more game with the Parisiens (the Coupe de France final Saturday), but this was effectively his send-off. It didn't disappoint, and neither did he.

They stopped the game in the 10th minute to cheer for Zlatan. I'm not making this up. They stopped in the middle of a competitive match so they could bask in the glory of Zlatan. What the hell?

Seven minutes after that, he reminded everyone why they STOPPED THE ACTUAL GAME TO LAVISH CHEERS UPON ZLATAN. Sorry for the all-caps, but we feel this didn't get enough attention. They stopped playing in the middle of an actual competitive match to cheer this dude on.

After that goal, he needed one more to solely hold the Ligue 1 single season scoring record. Late in the game, it looked like he might not get there.
But he did. Of course he did. What were you expecting?

He came like a king, left like a legend. Just ask him. And his kids.
