PSG celebrates historical 5-0 victory in the Champions League final!

In a gripping final of the UEFA Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) prevailed 5-0 against Inter Milan on June 1, 2025 and thus celebrated the first Champions League title since Qatar started in 2011. Before 64,500 spectators in Munich, PSG hardly gave the Italians a chance.

The decision was made in the first half when Achraf Hakimi scored the first goal in the 12th minute. A short time later, Désiré Doué, who met directly to Hakimi, increased and ensured a 2-0 lead in the 20th minute. The 19-year-old Doué became the youngest player who both scored a goal and contributed an assist in a Champions League final. After the change of sides, Doué scored 3-0 with his second goal in the 63rd minute. Khvicha Kvaratskhelia (73rd minute) and Senny Mayulu (87th minute) rounded off the impressive result that marked the greatest victory in the history of a Champions League final.

PSG in best form

PSG presented itself in excellent form and controlled the game over long distances. The team of coach Luis Enrique, who played in the usual 4-3-3 system, did not let Inter develop. The Italian team, which performed with a 3-5-2 system, only had a noteworthy chance in the first half by Marcus Thuram. After the change of sides, Inter tried to improve, but could by no means keep up with the dominance of PSG.

An unfortunate moment occurred for Inter when Yann Bisseck had to be replaced due to injury, which made the situation more difficult for the team. PSG goalie Gianluigi Donnarumma remained relatively unemployed until the 75th minute and was only seriously checked for the first time.

missed possibilities for inter

This was a bitter setback for Inter Milan, because the club aimed at a triple success this season and wanted to win the fourth Champions League title in the club's history. After the game, coach Simone Inzaghi recognized the superiority of PSG and was disappointed with the performance of his team. Inter now has to digest the second final defeat within a short time and will have to deal with the preparation for the new challenges in the coming season.

The PSG's triumphal ride in this Champions League season was remarkable. With their historical victory, they are only the second French team that gains this prestigious title, after the Olympique Marseille in 1993. PSG can now focus on the upcoming challenges, including the planned duel against Atlético Madrid in the World Cup on June 15, 2025.

Overall, this final once again shows the fascination and high level of the UEFA Champions League, which has become increasingly popular since its reform in 1992/93 over the years. The competition attracts the best teams in Europe and not only gives the winners fame and honor, but also the chance of further international titles such as the UEFA Super Cup and the FIFA Club World Championship.
