The long-awaited showdown is here as Paris Saint-Germain and Inter Milan prepare to battle for European glory in the UEFA Champions League 2024/25 final at Munich’s Allianz Arena stadium.
Both clubs have proven their dominance in this season’s competition, stepping up where past giants like Real Madrid (15-time winners) and Barcelona (5-time champions) once reigned.
After eleven grueling months under the tournament’s new format—replacing traditional group stages with a league phase —the two finalists have fought their way past Europe’s elite. Under Luis Enrique, PSG knocked out Premier League heavyweights Liverpool and Arsenal, while Simone Inzaghi’s Inter stunned Barcelona and Bayern Munich en route to the final.
While PSG enter as favorites, Inter cannot be underestimated—especially after their dramatic semi-final victory over Barcelona. The match could hinge on the goalkeeping duel between Inter’s Yann Sommer and PSG’s Gianluigi Donnarumma, both instrumental for their clubs and national teams (Switzerland and Italy, respectively). For Enrique, this is a chance to replicate his historic 2015 treble with Barcelona (La Liga, Champions League, Copa del Rey).
PSG will rely on their pace and precision, with Ousmane Dembélé, Désiré Doué, and Bradley Barcola leading the charge. Meanwhile, Inter’s hopes rest on the lethal partnership of Marcus Thuram and Lautaro Martínez, whose attacking synergy could dismantle PSG’s defense.
