Champions League final LIVE SCORE – PSG vs Inter Milan: Huge clash on NOW as Doue DOUBLES Parisians' lead
Allianz Arena been renamed for the Champions League final Bayern Munich's home ground - the Allianz Arena - will have a new name for the 2025 Champions League final. Their ground will be renamed the "Munich Football Arena" for the HUGE clash between Inter and PSG. This is because of Uefa regulations, which state the home club must provide a "clean stadium" for fixtures. This means there must be no branding or sponsor in the name of the stadium during the Uefa competitions. The regulation has also seen Arsenal have to rename the Emirates whilst in the Champions League.

PSG fans display banner calling for end to 'genocide' in Gaza during Champions League final
MUNICH (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain supporters displayed a banner saying 'Stop (the) genocide in Gaza' during the Champions League final on Saturday. They raised it shortly after Achraf Hakimi gave their team a 1-0 lead against his former side Inter Milan in the 12th minute. Désiré Doué scored PSG's second after the banner was raised. PSG fans are known for their stance against the war in Gaza. They previously displayed a giant banner saying 'Free Palestine' in November during the Champions League match against Atlético Madrid. Israel's nearly three-month blockade on Gaza has pushed the population of over two million to the brink of famine. It has allowed some aid to enter in recent days, but aid organizations say far from enough is getting in. The U.N. World Food Program said the fear of starvation in Gaza is high. The war began when Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing around 1,200 people, most of them civilians, and taking 250 hostages. Israeli strikes have killed more than 54,000 Gaza residents, mostly women and children, according to Gaza's Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in its tally. ___ AP soccer:

Why Achraf Hakimi didn't celebrate scoring the opening goal of the Champions League final
Achraf Hakimi scored the opening goal of the Champions League final to put Paris Saint-Germain in front against Inter Milan - but the right back did not celebrate. Hakimi finished Desire Doue's clever cut-back, scoring into an empty net to round off a lovely move from the French side, to give PSG the lead in Munich. However, Hakimi immediately raised his hands in apology to the Inter supporters who were behind Yann Sommer's goal at the Allianz Arena. The 26-year-old Morocco international played for Inter before joining PSG in 2021. He played one season in Italy, but it was a hugely successful one and Inter won Serie A that year. Hakimi was an integral part of Inter's title under Antonio Conte and scored seven goals from right wing back as he was named in the Serie A team of the year. Hakimi is now widely known as the best right back in the world and his goal against Inter means he has scored in the final, semi-final and quarter-final.
