Inzaghi opens up on Inter future ahead of Champions League final

Paris Saint-Germain thrashed Inter Milan 5-0 to finally end their quest for Champions League glory and break the record for the biggest victory in a European Cup final.

Luis Enrique’s stylish PSG team dominated their Italian opponents from kick-off and became the first team in the history of the European Cup to win a final by five goals.

Achraf Hakimi and Desire Doue put PSG two goals up inside 20 minutes. It felt like Inter needed a miracle at half-time, but their task became even harder when the 19-year-old Doue finished off a devastating counter-attack shortly after the hour.

Khvicha Kvaratskhelia added the fourth before another 19-year-old, Senny Mayulu, came off the bench and scored the fifth two minutes later to make history in Munich.

PSG, who lost the 2020 final to Bayern Munich, have spent billions in search of the Champions League, signing some of the best players in the world in Neymar, Kylian Mbappe and Lionel Messi but without going all the way.

With those stars having left, Enrique built a wonderful attacking side that has allowed the young talents of Doue, Kvaratskhelia and Ousmane Dembele to thrive and there is no doubt that they have been the best in Europe this season.

Vitinha: It was my dream to win it

Vitinha has talked to TNT Sports straight after the victory. He is understandably delighted at the win.

“It means everything,” he said. “The fans are the main reason we wanted to win the trophy but we wanted to win for a number of reasons - it's our dream, my dream to win it.

“It says a lot about the players. We’re a very good team and this result was not by magic. We’re very happy we did it like this and now we'll go and celebrate.”

PSG 5-0 Inter, 90 mins

This is going to be a record Champions League final win. Five goals PSG are full value for it. Unbelievable - they’ve been sublime.

GOAL! PSG 5-0 Inter (Senny Mayulu, 87 mins)

And there’s number five! What a celebration - subs on the pitch and all sorts.

Senny Mayulu, the 18-year-old, has just scored PSG’s final. He can’t believe it, off on a huge run around the pitch. Infectious joy from Mayulu!

Mayulu feeds Barcola, makes the run and gets the return pass (Acerbi playing him onside) and smashes it in at the near post, in off the post! Ha! Superb. What a moment.

PSG 4-0 Inter, 84 mins

Barcola should have scored multiple goals since coming on as a sub... He gets down the right and fires across goal but wide.

MISS! PSG 4-0 Inter, 83 mins

HOW HAS HE MISSED THAT? Not that it matters but Barcola is on the brink of scoring one of the greatest Champions League final goals of all-time, only to miss at the last.

He weaves past four men, sits down multiple defenders, gets six yards out, needs to just roll it into the far corner but goes for the near post and lashes it wide. Incredible miss after an unreal run!

PSG 4-0 Inter, 80 mins

Kvaratskhelia became the first Georgian player to score in a Champions League final with his goal. This could also now be the biggest win in the history of the European Cup/Champions League final.

The margin has been four goals on four previous occasions.

  • 1960: Real Madrid 7-3 Eintracht Frankfurt
  • 1974: Bayern Munich 4-0 Atletico Madrid (replay)
  • 1989: Milan 4-0 Steaua Bucharest
  • 1994: Milan 4-0 Barcelona

PSG 4-0 Inter, 76 mins

Finally a shot on target for Inter! Donnarumma parries the shot away - he’d like to keep a clean sheet.

A couple of Inter corners follow but PSG deal with them.
