Champions League final: Two dead, 559 arrested after PSG's historic title victory over Inter Milan, French Ministry says
As the fans celebrated Paris Saint-Germain's (PSG) 5-0 victory over Inter Milan in the final of the UEFA Champions League (UCL) final, two people died, and 559 people were arrested during the celebrations, according to an AFP report, citing the French interior ministry on June 1 (Sunday). Among the two people who died during the final win celebrations was a 17-year-old who was stabbed to death in the southwestern town of Dax as people celebrated PSG's win. On At the Champs Elysees, bus shelters were smashed and projectiles hurled at riot police, who fired tear gas and water cannon to push back surging crowds as thousands of supporters descended on the boutique-lined boulevard. According to the French Ministry cited in the agency report, the second person who died was a man who was riding a scooter. He was hit by a car in the southwest region of Paris. Out of the 559 people arrested, 491 people were arrested in the capital. Earlier, PSG secured a historic win, thus becoming the only French side to win UCL title after Marseille in 1993. The Luis Enrique-managed side registered wins over the likes Manchester City, Liverpool, Aston Villa, and Arsenal on the route to the final and never felt the pressure of playing with three-time champions, who ousted Barcelona 7-6 on aggregate to secure their spot in the final. The French giants were dominant right from the start and took the lead with Achraf Hakimi putting the ball in the net in the 12th over. Eight minutes later, the lead was doubled as Desire Doue beat a helpless Yann Sommer to make it 2-0. The scoreline went undisturbed for the rest of the first half. Though Khvicha Kvaratskhelia could not score in two of his opportunities, Desire managed to get a brace, as a no-look flick from Ousmane Dembele reached Vitinha, who gave the ball to Desire, who put it in the bottom corner of the goal in the 63rd minute.

‘Bono: Stories of Surrender' review: U2 fans will relish this one-man show
Bono's theatrical one man show is 'reimagined' for this film with director Andrew Dominik. Chiefly in black and white, it's a stripped back presentation that risks self indulgence but offers plenty of interest for fans, some of whom are featured in footage from the Beacon Theatre shows. The original performance was called 'Stories of Surrender: An Evening of Words, Music and Some Mischief'… which gives you a fair idea of the tone: Bono uses personal biographical recollections to introduce songs including 'Desire' and 'Pride (In The Name Of Love)'. The singer is ably accompanied by Jacknife Lee, cellist Kate Ellis, and harpist Gemma Doherty; his U2 bandmates The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr. are absent, but their presence is felt. Bono gives lively recounts of forming the band in 1976, offering poetic and gently comical insights into the personalities and key moments, such as the time that Adam and Larry chose to 'hide' from Luciano Pavarotti. The most poignant elements see Bono recalling his mother, who died when he was 14, and his father, who would begin their weekly pub sessions with the query: 'Anything strange or startling?' Born Paul David Hewson, Bono proves himself a decent mimic as he quotes various people in his life, often referring to his wife, Alison Stewart, though wisely refraining from a full-on impression of her. The format can feel slightly forced at times, and some viewers may not be able to get past the humble-bragging tone. But this is an essentially human story, reflecting on personal grief as well as themes such as religion, politics and charity. Those who have read the autobiography 'Surrender' may know the stories, but they're retold in a way that invites personal contemplation and nostalgia. If you grew up listening to Bono's voice, you will probably want to hear him out. Bono: Stories of Surrender is available globally on May 30 on Apple TV+.
