PSG-Inter Milan: Paris claims Champions League title, achieving long-awaited dream
Intense joy matched the long wait, with plenty of emotion and even tears after a dream evening. After so many years of disappointment on the continental stage, Paris Saint-Germain (PSG) finally secured its first Champions League title by outclassing Inter Milan (5-0) on Saturday, May 31, in Munich. The title crowned the capital's club, which had long dreamed of etching its name among the winners of Europe's most prestigious competition. PSG thus became only the second French club to win the Champions League trophy. It had been 32 years – an eternity – since French football last lifted it, after Olympique de Marseille's victory in the 1993 final (1-0), also against a Milanese team (AC Milan) and also in Munich. At the final whistle, the players danced and celebrated at the center of the pitch, sharing the moment with their supporters. All gave free rein to their joy. "This is incredible!" exclaimed Ousmane Dembélé. "A childhood dream," added Bradley Barcola. "It's crazy, I'm so happy," gushed Désiré Doué. A controlled encounter Beyond words, the Allianz Arena was above all the stage for some unforgettable scenes. Marquinhos and Presnel Kimpembe, who had experienced everything with PSG in recent years – especially past heartbreaks in the Champions League – fell into each other's arms in tears. "This is the greatest day of my life," said the Brazilian, who has been with the club for 12 years. "I have no strength left; I gave everything. I wanted this so much. We suffered; it was tough, it was difficult. This shows the value of the club, the passion of the supporters."
