Their 5-0 win over Inter was the biggest ever margin of victory in a European Cup/UEFA Champions League final.

Hakimi opened the scoring in the 12th minute with a simple tapping into an empty net. The Parisians went 2-0 ahead eight minutes later when their defender Willian Pacho improbably kept the ball from going out at the PSG end and the resulting fast-flowing move led to Doue firing in a deflected shot that evaded Inter goalkeeper Yann Sommer.

The French club made it 3-0 on 63 minutes with a goal created by Vitinha’s surging run. He exchanged passes with Ousmane Dembele, before delivering a pass into the path of Doue who drilled the ball into the net.

The match was put beyond doubt by Georgian international Kvaratskhelia’s brilliant low finish on 73 minutes before Mayulu rounded off a slick passing move to make it 5-0 with four minutes left.French Ligue 1 giants Paris Saint-Germain, defeated Inter Milan 5-0 inside the Allianz Arena to clinch their first-ever UEFA Champions League title.
