PSG vs Inter Milan LIVE: Follow the Champions League final
Paris Saint-German take on Inter Milan in the Champions League final in Munich on Saturday, with Luis Enrique's French champions hoping to end their long wait for the biggest prize in European club football. Watch FRANCE 24's special edition at 8pm Paris time (GMT+2) and follow our live updates for full coverage of the final. Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan face off in the Champions League final at the Allianz Arena this evening, in the first showdown between French and Italian clubs since Marseille triumphed over AC Milan in the same German city more than three decades ago. Chasing a historic treble after their Ligue 1 and French Cup titles, Qatari-owned PSG are aiming for their first Champions League trophy with a youthful, cohesive and forward-minded squad that coach Luis Enrique has stripped of past superstars Neymar, Messi and Mbappé. But standing in their way are Simone Inzaghi's experienced, wily nerazzurri, who outlasted tournament favourites Barcelona in an epic semi-final – and will be keen to avenge their 2023 final defeat at the hands of Manchester City. Ousmane Dembélé and Lautaro Martinez lead the teams' respective attacks, in what has been billed as a clash of cultures and styles, pitting youth against experience and attacking brio against plucky defending. Should his team prevail, Luis Enrique would join a select group of two-club Champions League winners.

FRANCE 24's Chloé Borgnon and William de Tamaris report.

Protecting Colombia's Rio Atrato: 'If the river does not function well, neither can life'
An environmentalist who's been fighting for the protection of Colombia's Atrato River has spoken to FRANCE 24 about why the waterway is vital for the environment and for the local Indigenous community. The Atrato was protected nearly 10 years ago after people got together to persuade Colombia's constitutional court to force the government to take action. Special protections are now in place. But campaigners say the measures do not go far enough. Rodrigo Rogelis, researcher and deputy director of the SIEMBRA socio-legal centre, is currently in Paris to speak at Sciences Po university. He spoke to us in Perspective.

‘The Baku Connection': FRANCE 24 and RFI among winners of European Press Prize award
'The Baku Connection', a sprawling investigation of abuse and impunity in President Ilham Aliyev's Azerbaijan, picked up the Special Award at the annual European Press Press awards ceremony in Bari on Wednesday. Coordinated by Forbidden Stories, the investigation involved 40 journalists from 15 media outlets including FRANCE 24 and RFI. It pursued the work of reporters from Azerbaijan's Abzas Media, who have been in jail since November 2023. Journalists involved included Karina Chabour and Roméo Langlois for FRANCE 24's investigation bureau, Corentin Bainier and Ershad Alijani of the FRANCE 24 Observers, Sébastian Seibt from FRANCE 24's digital newsroom, and RFI's Daniel Vallot. Since its launch in 2017, Forbidden Stories has brought together more than 150 journalists from 60 media outlets, investigating drug cartels, cybersurveillance and environmental damage by the mining industry, among other subjects. Its mission is to continue the work of fellow journalists around the world who have been jailed, murdered or otherwise silenced, thereby ensuring their investigations are pursued and published. The European Press Prize has been awarded annually since 2021, in five different categories. Its aim is to promote high-quality European journalism and to support journalists who face obstacles, threats and attempts to silence them.
