13 remarkable stats from PSG’s historic 5-0 Champions League final victory
PSG have won the Champions League for the first time in their history after a thumping 5-0 win over Inter Milan in the 2025 final.
The Ligue 1 champions travelled to Munich as warm favourites, having beaten four Premier League teams en route to the showpiece.
And Luis Enrique’s team tore into their Italian opponents with the relish of a recently released hostage attacking a bargain bucket.
Achraf Hakimi, who used to play for Inter, opened the scoring after 12 minutes following a clever pull-back for Desire Doue.
And it was Doue who doubled PSG’s lead soon after, thrashing his shot home via a deflection of Federico Dimarco.
Enrique’s men didn’t let up after the break, with Doue adding his second goal before Khvicha Kvaratskhelia made it four with a cute finish.
There was enough time for the teenage Senny Mayulu to get in on the act, smashing home PSG’s fifth and celebrating with sheer delight.
