PSG's Champions League hero Doue says 'dream becomes reality'
The 19-year-old lit up Munich's Allianz Arena, scoring twice and providing an assist as PSG routed Inter Milan 5-0.
"I don't have the words," said the French teenager.
"Thanks to the Parc (des Princes, PSG's home stadium), thanks Paris.
"A dream has become reality. It's just magnificent. It's crazy, I'm so happy.
"It's just the beginning."
PSG have been guided to the continental crown for the first time in their history by Spanish coach Luis Enrique.
"It's time to have a big party," said Luis Enrique, who also won the Champions League with Barcelona 10 years ago.
"We have to make the most of this moment," added the 55-year-old.
"I feel this connection with the players and the supporters, it's very strong. It's a great moment, we deserve it. We managed to control the tension."

French police detain 79 more people on Sunday night after PSG celebrations
French authorities detained 79 people in the second such wave of arrests during celebrations following Paris Saint-Germain's football Champions League win, a police chief said Monday, June 2. PSG winning the biggest prize in European club football for the first time sparked delirious festivities in France, but was marred by violence. On Sunday, "we saw a resurgence of individuals driven by malicious intent who were not really PSG supporters," Paris police chief Laurent Nuñez told RTL radio. "We arrested 79 people, some of them in the night," he said, adding that order had been restored before dawn. Some were detained over taking barriers and briefly blocking the ring road around Paris, while others had tried to vandalize businesses or fired fireworks on the Champs-Elysées, he said. PSG thrashed Inter Milan by a record 5-0 in Saturday evening's final in Munich, flying back to Paris on Sunday for a triumphal parade along the Champs-Elysées, then celebrations in a packed Parc des Princes stadium on the edge of the French capital. On Saturday night, police had made more than 500 arrests across France, the Interior Ministry said, after more than 200 cars were torched and police clashed with youths. In the southwest town of Dax, a 17-year-old boy died after being stabbed in the chest. A 23-year-old man riding a scooter in central Paris also died after being hit by a vehicle. A policeman was in an induced coma after being injured by a firework.

PSG celebrates Champions League victory throughout Paris: 'It's like the 1998 World Cup'
Blue and red were everywhere, even lighting up the Eiffel Tower. Some gray and white shirts, and even pink and yellow, though less frequent, also made appearances throughout the entire weekend of Saturday, May 31, and Sunday, June 1, as streets, sidewalks and metro stations of Paris became the scene of a multicolored parade rarely seen, not even during Fashion Week. By the hundreds and thousands, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) supporters proudly wore their colors. On Saturday, they paraded with caution, as if intimidated by the upcoming event. On Sunday, after what many called their most beautiful night as fans – PSG's sweeping victory over Inter Milan (5-0) in the Champions League final in Munich, Germany – tens of thousands flocked to the Champs-Elysées to celebrate their heroes. Paris Police capped the gathering at 110,000, all gathered on the same side of the avenue. They came, they were all there, packed tightly together or, for the bolder ones, perched atop a bus shelter, a newsstand or traffic lights. From the Rond-Point des Champs-Elysées to Place de l'Etoile stretched a human ribbon of jubilation over a kilometer long, a rare sight in Paris. Many wore their finest PSG outfits, representing the club's 50-year history, with sometimes forgotten sponsors and the names of past and present stars on their backs: Dembélé and Marquinhos, of course, but also Messi, Neymar, Mbappé, even Verratti or Pastore, and a few personal nicknames like "Toto" or "Gege."
