It was an evening of weightlessness, one evening to enter the Pantheon after years of continental wandering, marked by disillusions with shovel and disenchanted evenings. But this May 31, 2025 will be a date in the history of Paris Saint-Germain, titled in the Champions League for the first time in its existence after years of chase with this trophy. Yes, Paris did it, Paris set foot in the eternal by humiliating in absolutely historical proportions Inter Milan, 5-0, in an opposition which never existed. Uninvaded domination, from the first to the last minute. The configuration of the start of the game was quite predictable, and it already announced the color of this evening. With an eleven type, with the exception of Désiré Doué, preferred to Barcola for the event, the men of Luis Enrique unrolled their game like the coil of a scenario.
They occupied half of the opposing terrain, when the Nerazzuri preferred to let them maneuver as they please, guided by the idea of stinging against. The first heat of heat came from a center of Vitinha, touched by Marquinhos (6th). Vitinha, still him, was on the wand on the first Parisian goal, barely six minutes later. On the outskirts of the surface, the Portuguese found a love of space for gifted, well placed in the back of the Lombard defense. The French international brought the ball perfectly to get back in the direction of the goal, before cleverly serving Hakimi, alone facing the empty cage (12th). Ironically, Inter Milan conceded a new goal on a counter, at the end of a wonderful ride of Ousmane Dembélé. The former Barcelona stared at his opposite before changing his wing for Goué, which triggered a deflected volley of the volley which left helpless (20th). It could not be more logical.
Inter was humiliated, Paris enters history
Sharpening, the Parisians were not satisfied and returned the insolent impression of playing in an armchair. Seeing them led by 3 or 4 goals to the break would have had nothing scandalous. Goutout played his Champions League final like a Gambardella final, and offered himself a tightrope walker before seeing his shot flee the frame (45+1st), when Dembélé badly adjusted his flat on a gifted caviar. In the first period, the only real Italian situation was to be put to the assets of Marcus Thuram, whose whim on a corner was missing the skylight of Donnarumma. Paris could bend the match as soon as the locker room returns, but Kvaratskhelia lacked two big situations, first after a breakthrough which he concluded with a strike in the small exterior net of Sommer, then a non -framed recovery by being alone in the area (51st).
The Italians purred more than they bit, and we were closer to 3-0 than 2-1. The third goal was not waiting for a long time, since the gigantic Désiré Doué offered a double. At the end of a wonderful counterattack, triggered by the Talonade de Dembélé, and extended by the ride of Vitinha, gifted concluded with a formidable flat of the foot to play with Sommer (63rd, 3-0). Everyone wanted to join the party, and the entrant Barcola was not far from making the decision at the second post, but his recovery was not on top (70th). Kvaratskhelia finally made the decision: Nuno Mendes recovered in his camp, Dembélé put in orbit the Georgian, who was going to challenge himself and deceive him of a flat foot in his turn (73rd, 4-0). It was a humiliation as rarely seen in a final of the Champions League, and Barcola even made Acerbi lose his dignity by leaving him to the ground, before missing the frame (81st). It was awarded since he was a decisive passer for the entrant Senny Mayulu a few moments later (87th, 5-0). The Parisians lived an end of the match to the rhythm of the “olé” of their supporters, for whom the party will undoubtedly be dragged until tomorrow, even the day after tomorrow. Tonight, they are European champions, and in proportions never seen in history.
