Auxerre attempted a comeback, but Paris Saint-Germain held on to win 2-1 and go to the Ligue 1 final.
After just six minutes, Christophe Galtier's team took the lead, giving them a great start to the game. In a superb move, Kylian Mbappe beat Ionut Radu with a shot after Fabian Ruiz slipped him in.
Just two minutes later, Mbappe scored his second goal. Lionel Messi's pass found the striker, who slammed the ball in to make it 2-0.
Auxerre appeared to be in for a difficult night, but Christophe Pelissier's team responded admirably after falling behind 2-0 early on.
In the 38th minute, the hosts nearly pulled a goal back when Souleymane Isaak's fierce shot hit the crossbar.
Six minutes into the second half, Auxerre managed to get one back. After latching onto a long ball over the top, Lassine Sinayoko fired past Gianluigi Donnarumma.
Relegation-threatened Auxerre persisted in trying to score an equaliser, but Galtier's team did enough to secure the victory and go one step closer to winning the Ligue 1 championship.
