Historic Treble for PSG:
This Champions League title completes a historic continental treble for PSG — having already secured the Ligue 1 title and the Coupe de France. They become the first French club to achieve this feat and the ninth European side in history to do so.
Disappointment for Inter:
For Inter Milan, the night was a bitter blow. Having been in contention for a treble just weeks ago, they end the season trophyless. The loss marks their fourth defeat in a European Cup/UCL final, trailing only Juventus (7), Benfica (5), and Bayern Munich (5) for most final losses.
Next Stop: Club World Cup
Both PSG and Inter will now shift focus to the Club World Cup, with PSG set to face Atletico Madrid, while Inter will take on Monterrey in their opening fixture.
A landmark night for PSG, and a dream finally realized for the Parisian faithful. After years of near misses and heartbreak, Paris Saint-Germain have their hands on the biggest prize in European football.
