——Kylian Mbappe Congratulates former team, PSG

The 2025 UCL final recoded a 5-0 demolition of Inter-Milan by Paris Saint-Germain.
This is PSG’s first time wining the Champions League in their history.
The many goals against an overwhelmed Inter-Milan wanted the whistle when the third went in, what pundits have described as one of the great goals in Champions League final history, finished by Desire Doue. The referee obliged by sparing them stoppage time, PSG’s point long since proven.
Simone Inzaghi’s men aged before the eyes. Statistically the oldest side in Serie A this season with an average age of 29, PSG were far too quick for them from the outset, winning possession high against a surprisingly one-paced Inter, who looked ill-equipped to cope.
It was as if they were unused to such speed. Understandably so. This was Doue’s night, Ousmane Dembele’s season, and the pair rotated positions as Inter failed to follow. It felt like football from the future and with an average age of 23, maybe it is PSG’s future.
Everywhere in this team there are new stars, new stories. Achraf Hakimi and Nuno Mendes are already the best full-back pairing in football, although even that description does them a disservice given their propensity to pop up anywhere on the football pitch.
